A  
It's hard to be the last one in a soon to be ghost town  
     D                            A 
When all that you've loved is now gone 
E                                D         A  
And you could have left with the first big wave  
C#m                       D         A 
You remember back to when you first came 
                     E 
How you didn't wanna leave  

          A          D 
Cause you remembered when  
Bm      A                E 
And you said you'd never leave  
          A        D 
Cause you loved it then  

A 
It's a hard to be a clear one in a place with no clear ones  
         D                           A 
At least not what it meant what they were   
E                                         D      A 
And you're sharp could have split but you stayed because  
C#m                   D           A 
At the very least you knew who you was 
                       E 
And you didn't want to leave  
           
          A         D 
Cause you liked the air  
Bm      A                 E 
And you still don't wanna leave 
          A       D 
Cause you like it there  

Solo  

A 
You know it's hard to be the last one in a soon to be ghost town  
     D                            A 
When all that you've loved is now gone  
E                              D  A 
And you could have moved on to anywhere 
C#m                      D          A 
But you remember back to your first day there 
            E 
On the fire escape 

        A     D 
Smoking cigarettes  
Bm      A          E 
With  a fresh foul lip  
  A        D 
A new best friend  

Bm          A              E 
And how you didn't want to leave  
          A         D 
Cause you liked the air 
Bm      A                E 
And you said you'd never leave 
          A        D 
Cause you liked it then  
Bm      A                   E 
How you still don't want to leave 
          A       D 
Cause you love it there
