Intro: C Am Em D (x2)
verse 1
C Am
In between the magic of the moment
Em D
and the hand that holds it all
C Am
coming from the paper moon that hangs
Em D
above our heads
C Am
the light that hits your hair is soft and gentle
Em D
like the flowers on the walls
C Am Em D
of desert and evacuated old heartbreak hotels
Pre-Chorus
C
And looking in your eyes I'm trapped
Am Em D
inside a giant sea of neon lights
C Am D
a tunnel of creation where I end and you begin
C Am D Am
Your heart is like a locomotive driving patiently into the night
C D Am
with every single touch I feel it beating from within
Em
your polyester skin
C Am Em D x2
verse 2
C Am Em D
Whether in a coma or a state of total bliss and harmony
C Am Em D
I am often feeling like a tourist in my time
C Am Em D
no matter how far I walk or wherever I run to chase my dreams
C Am Em D
I always end up feeling deaf and dumb and left behind
Pre-Chorus
C
And looking in your eyes I'm trapped
Am Em D
inside a giant sea of neon lights
C Am D
a tunnel of creation where I end and you begin
C Am D Am
Your heart is like a locomotive driving patiently into the night
C D Am
with every single touch I feel it beating from within
Pre-Chorus
C
And looking in your eyes I'm trapped
Am Em D
inside a giant sea of neon lights
C Am D
a tunnel of creation where I end and you begin
C Am D Am
Your heart is like a locomotive driving patiently into the night
C D Am
with every single touch I feel it beating from within
Em
your polyester skin
