G Em
I’ve been working all night watching them empty hours
C G
Invisible to these crowds, always double vision
G Em
I’ve been losing my mind listening to broken speech
C G
Stacking up broken seats, it’s a lonely picture

Pre-Chorus:
Bm C Em
And I hear your voice as it echoes ’round my head
D
Always that same thing that you said
Chorus:
G C
Get out, get up, while you still can
Em C D
Don’t let the nights slip through your hands
G C
The world is wide from where you stand
Em D C D
So get out, get out while you still can (ooh ooh)

Verse II:
G Em
As I’m sweeping up glass, I see the exit lights so green
C
These people falling into the streets
G
Something comes together
G Em
I’ve been here too long and if I stay, they’ll tie me down
C G
I know this trench won’t hang around, so I’m gone forever
Pre-Chorus:
Bm C Em
And I hear your voice as it echoes ’round my head
D
Always that same thing that you said
Chorus:
G C
Get out, get up, while you still can
Em C D
Don’t let the nights slip through your hands
G C
The world is wide from where you stand

Verse III:
G
Packing up my suitcase, racing down for gun street
Em
Making my tracks along the cracks in the colt
C
Seeing those headlights shining down upon my feet
G
If you find me, you will find me on the run
G
For all the bleeding hearts pushing ’round the subway cars
Em
I’ve seen the greener of grass, I’ve seen the faster cars
C
And I don’t need your heavy hours
I don’t need your lonely bars
G
I’m ejected like a bullet from a gun
G
So take your final look at me, maybe even take my hand
Em
Standing on the staircase, come and chase the master plan
C
Long way to get away, play it like a grand slam
G
This is no encore, we have only just begun
Chorus:
G C
Get out, get up, while you still can
Em C D
Don’t let the nights slip through your hands
G C
The world is wide from where you stand
Em D C D
So get out, get out while you still can (ooh ooh)
