[Verse]
G      Bm         Em          Bm
Nobody ever had a dream round here
    G              Em             B           Em
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
G      Bm             Em          Bm
Nobody ever pulls the seams round here
    G              Em             B           Em
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
D             Em       Am       G
I've got this energy beneath my feet
     C              D              B           C
Like something underground's gonna come up and carry me
D             Em          Am         G
I've got this sentimental heart that beats
    C              D              B           C
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me

[Chorus]
D       B                 Em
Now, "Why do you waste my time?"
       Bm            C        D       G   G/F#
Is the answer to the question on your mind
        Em             B         C         D            B
And I'm sick of all my judges so scared of what they'll find
      Em              Bm                 C        D        G
But I know that I can make it as long as somebody takes me home
      G#m     Am     Am Em Bm
Every now and then...

[Post Chorus]
             G             Bm    Em      G  Em Bm
Oh, have you ever seen the lights?
         G             Bm    Em      G Em Bm
Have you ever seen the lights?

[Verse]
G        Bm           Em        Bm
I took a shuttle on a shockwave ride
      G             Em            B          Em
Where people on the pen pull the trigger for accolade
G        Bm            Em      Bm
I took a bullet and I looked inside
G                  Em         B      Em
Running through my veins an American masquerade
D       Em               Am      G
I still remember Grandma Dixie's wake
    C             D       B        C
I'd never really known anybody to die before
D               Em          Am       G
Red, white, and blue upon a birthday cake
   C              D           B         C
My brother he was born on the Fourth of July and that's

[Chorus]
D       B                    Em
All, so "Why do you waste my time?"
       Bm            C        D       G   G/F#
Is the answer to the question on your mind
        Em             B         C         D            B
And I'm sick of all my judges so scared of letting me shine
      Em              Bm                  C        D        G  G/F#  Em
But I know that I can make it, as long as somebody takes me home..
G#m           Am   Bm                C    D Dsus4
Every now and then,    Every now and then
         G Bm  Em Bm    C Am  G     D
You know I see London,  I see Sam's Town
G     Bm Em   Bm  C    Am G    D 
Holds my hand and lets my hair down
G     Bm   Em    Bm    C   Am G    D
Rolls that world right off my shoulder
G Bm  Em Bm    C Am G      D    E
I see London,  I see Sam's Town now
