Verse 1

[A#] [F] [D#]

When I was a kid, I used to think

[Gm]

The moon was following me home

[F] [D#]

But now I drink and dance in the street

[Gm]

I know I've never been more wrong

[A#] [D#]

Now I'm grown, I've come to know

[Gm]

Every girl's out here on her own

[F] [D#]

The faces of God, they never showed

Refrain

[Gm] [A#]

Oh, oh, ooh

[D#]

Oh, oh, ooh

[Gm] [A#] [D#]

Oh, oh, ooh

Verse 2

[A#] [F]

The stars and the gods

[D#]

They’ve come to watch

[Gm]

Me stumbling home in the silver dark

[F] [D#]

I’ve been praying to the constellations

Turns out they were all just satellite

[Gm]

stations

[A#] [D#]

Now I’m grown, I’ve come to know

[Gm]

Every blame and every fault

[F]

So I do what I want

[D#]

I wear those clothes

Refrain

[Gm] [A#]

Oh, oh, ooh

[D#]

Oh, oh, ooh

[Gm] [A#] [D#]

Oh, oh, ooh

Chorus

[Gm]

Can you tell me where it hurts

[A#]

when you feel it kicking in?

[D#]

Grit your teeth, make a scene,

put your keys between fists

[Gm]

It's an 808 heartbeat,

[A#] [D#]

it's a funeral hymn

[Gm]

And if this is my end,

[A#]

then the sky is my witness

[D#]

The night isn't kind,

it's a cruel, cruel mistress

[Gm] [A#]

And any God watching will beg

[D#]

my forgiveness for this

Verse 3

[A#] [F] [D#]

When I was a kid, I used to think

[Gm]

The moon was following me home

[A#]

With shoes in hand

[D#]

I hear the marching band

Playing their song for my untimely end

[D#]

Now I’m grown, I should know

[Gm]

I should know, I should know,

[F]

I should know, I should know

[D#]

I should know

Bridge

[Gm]

There’s humming in the air

[A#]

The street lights are dimming

[D#]

It’s the dark before dawn

When the birds start singing

[Gm]

It’s praying you can make it

[F] [D#]

For just five more minutes

[Gm]

God it’s quiet and it’s violent

[A#]

And it’s everywhere I go

[D#]

It’s the sweat in my palms

When i’m praying to the god

[Gm]

I promise I’ll believe,

[F] [D#]

if you could just get me home

Chorus

[Gm]

Oh, tell me where it hurts

[A#]

when you feel it kicking in

[D#]

Grit your teeth, make a scene,

put your keys between fists

[Gm]

It's an 808 heartbeat,

[A#] [D#]

it's a funeral hymn

[Gm]

And if this is my end,

[A#]

then the sky is my witness

[D#]

The night isn't kind,

it's a cruel, cruel mistress

[Gm] [A#]

And any God watching will beg

[D#]

my forgiveness for this

Outro

[Gm]

Can you tell me where it hurts

[A#]

when you feel it kicking in?

[D#]

Grit your teeth, make a scene,

put your keys between fists

[Gm]

It's an 808 heartbeat,

[A#] [D#]

it's a funeral hymn

[Gm]

And if this is my end,

[A#]

then the sky is my witness

[D#]

The night isn't kind,

it's a cruel, cruel mistress

[Gm] [A#]

And any God watching will beg

[D#]
