Lyrics

(A)Look ing for some thing I’ve nev er seen, a lone and I’m in be tween.

The place that I’m from and the place that I’m in, a (E)cit y I’ve nev er been.

I found a friend or should I say a foe.

Said (E)there’s a few things you should know.

We don’t want you to see we come and we go.

Here to day gone to mor row.

We’re on ly tak ing turns

(C#m7)hold ing

(Esus)this (E)world.

It’s how it’s al ways been.

When you’re old er, you will un der (A)stand.

If I say who I know, it just goes to show you need me less than I need you.

But, take it from me, we don’t give sym pa thy.

You can trust me, trust no bod (A)y.

But, I said you and me we don’t have hon es ty, the things we don’t want to speak.

And I’ll try to get out but I nev er will.

(Emaj7)Traf fic is per fect ly (A)still.

(Amaj7)stand.

And then a gain may be you don’t.

And then a gain may be you won’t.

(Oo,

we’re on ly tak ing turns.)

We’re on ly tak ing turns

(C#m7)hold ing

(Esus)this (E)world.

It’s how it’s al ways been.

When you’re old er, you will un der (A)stand.

When you’re old er, you might un der (Amaj7)stand.

When you’re old er, you might un der (Amaj7)stand.

(A)stand.
