Intro: C#maj7
C#maj7 G# C#maj7 G# Bm G#/C
How cruel is the golden rule
C#maj7 G# C F
When the lives we live are only golden plated
C#maj7 G# G#
And I Knew That The Lights of the city were too heavy for me
C# G# C F
And though I carried Karats for everyone to see
Fm Gm G# D#
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
Fm Gm G# D#
And all the lovers with no time for me
Fm Gm G# D# D#/C
And all of the mothers raise their babies to
C#maj7
stay away from me
C#maj7 G# C#maj7 G# G#/C
Tongues on the sockets of electric dreams
C#maj7 G# C F
Where the sewage of youth drowned the spark of my teens
C#maj7 G# G#
And I Knew That The Lights of the city were too heavy for me
C#maj7 G# C F
And though I carried Karats for everyone to see
Fm Gm G# D#
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
Fm Gm G# D#
And all the lovers with no time for me
Fm Gm G# D# D#/C
And all of the mothers raise their babies to
C#maj7
stay away from me
D#/C C#maj7
And pray they don’t grow up to be
