(Verse 1)
[F#] The fossils of my footsteps will [C#]be unearthed at a far off date, unknown
[F#] Impressed in [F#2]concrete from [C#]walking home alone[C#/D#] after walking you home
[F#2] [F#2]
[F#] And the mops of greasy hair[C#] will romanticize my despair
[F#] [F#2]But they wont know[C#] [C#/D#] that I didn't care
(Chorus 1)
[Bbm] I [G#4]like the [C#]sil[(]en[C#5]ce, [)] [F#2]I like the empty streets
[Bbm] Cra[G#4]wl [C#]dow[(]n [C#5]on m[)]y [F#2]hands and knees in a heartbeat
[Bbm] [G#4] [C#] [(] [C#5] If [)]I [F#2]had to
[Bbm] I owe 'em that a[G#]t the very least[F#]
(Verse 2)
[F#] The map had faded out but I [C#]could have sworn I noted every stride
[F#] I guess the [F#2]rain hit be[C#]fore the ink had dri[C#/D#]ed
[F#] And where I thought I'd be[C#] was not what I perceived
[F#] Assessing the [F#2]progress from ben[C#]eath your she[C#/D#]ets
(Chorus 2)
That's [Bbm]why I [G#4]need the [C#]sil[(]en[C#5]ce, [)] [F#2]I need the empty streets
[Bbm] Just[G#4] as b[C#]ad a[(]s [C#5]they[)] d[F#2]on't need me
Its a [Bbm]sick, [G#4]sad, [C#]sham [(]of[C#5] a [)] m[F#2]arriage
But its all there is,[Bbm] its [G#]all I nee[F#]d[F#m]
(Tag)
[F#2] I can be [Bbm]everyt[G#4]hing you [F#2]need if you [Bbm]make me[G#4]
[F#2] I can be [Bbm]every [G#4]crack in your [F#2]concrete if you [Bbm]let me off[G#4] easy
[F#2] I can be [Bbm]easil[G#4]y decei[F#2]ved if you [Bbm]want tha[G#4]t
[F#2] But you are the [Bbm]ember [G#4]of my [F#2]heart, whether you [C#]like that[C#sus2] or not
[F#]
