Intro: Dm Bb F C

Dm                              Bb               F     C
The graffiti on the back stage wall Gets painted over 
Dm                Bb
In a muted shade
        F                       C
And the club becomes an Old Navy
Dm                   Bb       F     C
After the scene dies
Dm                              Bb
When the last six-string slinger
       F                  C
Has to bow down for insurance
   Dm                  Bb
And accept the mundane
          F            C
After the scene dies


Bb
When the last one leaves
C
And the last note fades
F
And the last dream's been put away
Bb                  G
Shut the light off, shut the light off


Dm                               Bb
When the front man turns to Jesus
        F                  C
And the drummer moves away
           Dm                 Bb
I'll still be doing what pleases me
F          C
After the scene dies
Dm                        Bb
When the bar tender passes
        F              C
And the owner cashes out,
        Dm                Bb
And they box up the glasses
         F                   C
And they take the sound system down
Dm                      Bb                F        C
Guitars back in their cases, don't forget my fries
Dm                    Bb     F       C
After the scene dies


Bb
When the last one leaves
C
And the last note fades
F
And the last dream's been put away
Bb                  G
Shut the light off, shut the light off


Dm    Bb            F           C
            After the scene dies
Dm    Bb            F           C
            After the scene dies
Dm    Bb            F           C
            After the scene dies
Dm    Bb            F           C
            After the scene dies


Dm                         Bb             
What you gonna do when the club shuts down?
F                          C
What you gonna do when the club shuts down?
Dm                         Bb
What you gonna do when the club shuts down?
F                  C
After the scene dies

Dm
