intro : Am , Em , F , Dm
verse: Am , Em , F , Dm
chorus: F , Em

               Am
Old yellow bricks,
          Em
Love's a risk,
     F                     Dm
Quite the little Escapoligist
              Am
Looked so miffed,
             Em  
When you wished,
       F                          Dm
For a thousand places better than this,

                 Am
You are the fugitive,
                Em
But you don't know what you're running from ,
F              Dm
You cant kid us,
                      Am
And you couldn't trick anyone,
Em                     F                     Dm
Houdini, love you don't know what you're running away from ,

              F                      Em
Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?
F                    Em
Blinded by nostalgia,
              F                     Em              Dm
Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?

(same chords from now on )
She was enraged by the way,
That the emperor put traps in the cage,
And the days she being dull,
Lead to nights reading beer bottles,

You're such a fugitive,
But you don't know what you're running from ,
You cant kid us,

And you couldn't trick anyone,
Houdini, love you don't know what you're running away from ,

Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?
Blinded by nostalgia,
Who wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up?

You're at a loss,
Just because,
It wasn't all that you thought it was,

You are a fugitive but you don't know what you're running away from ,

She said I want to sleep in the city that never wakes up,
And revel in nostalgia,
I know I said he wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up but,
Dorothy was right though
