Intro: C5

C5                                         A5
They heard me singing and they told me to stop
                                  F5              C5
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
                                     A5
These days my life, I feel it has no purpose
                               F5           C5
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface

                                      A5
'Cause on the surface the city lights shine
                                F5         C5
They're calling at me, come and find your kind
                                     A5
Sometimes I wonder if the World's so small
                       F5            C5
That we can never get away from the sprawl


Chorus:
F5             C5
Living in the sprawl
F5             C5               F5                C5          C
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains
               A5
And there's no end in sight
                             F5              C5
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

C5                                A5
We rode our bikes to the nearest park
                         F5             C5
Sat under the swings and kissed in the dark
                                   A5
We shield our eyes from the police lights
                    F5          C5
We run away, but we don't know why

                                    A5
On the black river, the city lights shine
                                  F5         C5
They're screaming at us, we don't need your kind
                                     A5
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small
                       F5            C5
That we can never get away from the sprawl


Chorus

Eb5 C5 Eb5 G5

C5                                         A5
They heard me singing and they told me to stop
                                  F5              C5
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
                                     A5
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small
                 F5            C5
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?


Chorus


C5 A5

I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights
