[Intro]
A#  F  Dm  C  2x


[Verse]
A#          F         Dm       C
I was left to my own devices
A#         F              Dm         C
Many days fell away with nothing to show


[Pre-chorus]
A#                           F
And the walls kept tumbling down
                   Dm     C
In the city that we loved
A#                          F
Great clouds roll over the hills
                       Dm   C
Bringing darkness from above


[Chorus]
                      A#
But if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm                 C
Nothing changed at all?
                      A#
And if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm                C
You've been here before?
A#                    Dm       C
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
A#                    Dm        C
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?


[Verse]
A#              F              Dm         C
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
A#            F           Dm             C
In your pose as the dust settles around us


[Pre-chorus]
A#                           F
And the walls kept tumbling down
                   Dm     C
In the city that we loved
A#                          F
Great clouds roll over the hills
                       Dm   C
Bringing darkness from above


[Chorus]
                      A#
But if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm                 C
Nothing changed at all?
                      A#
And if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm                C
You've been here before?
A#                    F        C
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
A#                    F        C
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?


[Interlude]
A#  F  Dm  C


[Bridge]
A#              F
Oh where do we begin?
Dm                C
The rubble or our sins?
A#              F
Oh where do we begin?
Dm                C
The rubble or our sins?


[Pre-chorus]
A#                           F
And the walls kept tumbling down
                   Dm     C
In the city that we loved
A#                          F
Great clouds roll over the hills
                       Dm   C
Bringing darkness from above


[Chorus]
                     A#
But if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm                  C
Nothing changed at all?
                      A#
And if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm               C
You've been here before?
A#                    Dm        C
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
A#                    Dm        C
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?


[Chorus]
                      A#
But if you close your eyes,
        F
Does it almost feel like
Dm                  C
Nothing changed at all?
