[Verse]
C
It’s a really old city
Fmaj7/C
Stuck between the dead and the living
G/B G
So I thought to myself, sitting on a graveyard shelf
Am Fmaj7/C
As the echo of heartbeats, from the ground below my feet
G/B G
Filled a cemetery in the center of Queens
C
I started running the maze of
Fmaj7/C G/B
The names and the dates, some older than others
G7
The skyscrapers, little tombstone brothers
Am Fmaj7/C
With Manhattan behind her, three million stunning reminders
G/B G7
Built a cemetery in the center of Queens
[Chorus]
C Em
You said, remember that life is
Fmaj7/C
Not meant to be wasted
G
We can always be chasing the sun
C Em Fmaj7/C
So fill up your lungs and just run
G
But always be chasing the sun
[Verse]
C
So how do you do it
Fmaj7/C G/B
With just words and just music, capture the feeling
G
That my earth is somebody’s ceiling
Am Fmaj7/C G/B
Can I deliver in sound, the weight of the ground
G
Of a cemetery in the center of Queens
C
There’s a history through her
Fmaj7/C G/B
Sent to us as a gift from the future, to show us the proof
G E/G#
More than that, it’s to dare us to move
Am Fmaj7/C G/B
And to open our eyes and to learn from the sky
G
From a cemetery in the center of Queens
[Kembali ke Chorus]
[Bridge]
C Fmaj7/C G
All we can do is try
Am Fmaj7/C G
And live like we’re still alive
[Verse]
C
It’s a really old city
Fmaj7/C
Stuck between the dead and the living
G/B G
So I thought to myself, sitting on a graveyard shelf
Am Fmaj7/C
And the gift of my heartbeat sounds like a symphony
G/B G
Played by a cemetery in the center of Queens
[Kembali ke Chorus]
[Outro]
C Fmaj7/C G
All we can do is try
Am Fmaj7/C G
And live like we’re still alive
C Fmaj7/C G
All we can do is try
Am Fmaj7/C G C
And live like we’re still alive
