The Killers - Sam's Town

Sam's Town
Album: Sam's Town

Intro:
G Bm Em G Em Bm
G Bm Em G Em Bm

G Bm Em Bm
Nobody ever had a dream round here
G Em B Em
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
G Bm Em Bm
Nobody ever pulls the seams round here
G Em B Em
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
D Em Am G
I've got this energy beneath my feet
C D B C
Like something underground's gonna come up and carry me
D Em Am G
I've got this sentimental heart that beats
C D B C
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me

D B Em
Now.."Why do you waste my time?"
Bm C D G G/f#
Is the answer to the question on your mind
Em B C D B
And I'm sick of all my judges so scared of what they'll find
Em Bm C D G
But I know that I can make it as long as somebody takes me home
Abm Am Am Em Bm
Every now and then...

G Bm Em G Em Bm
Oh, have you ever seen the lights?
G Bm Em G Em Bm
Have you ever seen the lights?

I took the shuttle on a shock-wave ride
Where the people on the pen pull the trigger for accolade
I took a bullet, and I looked inside
Running through my veins an American masquerade
I still remember Grandma Dixie's wake
I'd never really known anybody to die before
Red white and blue upon a birthday cake
My brother, he was born on the fourth of the July

And that's all, "So why do you waste my time?"
Is the answer to the question on your mind
And I'm sick of all my judges, so scared of letting me shine
Em Bm C D G G/f# Em
But I know that I can make it, as long as somebody takes me home..
Abm Am Bm C D Dsus4
Every now and then, Every now and then
G Bm Em Bm C Am G D
You know I see London, I see Sam's Town
Holds my hand and let's my hair down
Rolls that world right off my shoulder
G Bm Em Bm C Am G D E
I see London, I see Sam's Town now
