This is just a version of the song I figured out to play for my friends it's alot of fun. Enjoy!
Let ring during intro.
INTRO
D#5, G5, F
Eh-eh-o-eh-o [x4]
D#5 G5 F
I was left to my own devi-i-i-ices
D#5 G5 F
Many days fell away with nothing to show
VERSE 1 [Alternate Palm-muting]
D#5 G5
And the walls kept tumbling down
F
In the city that we love
D#5 G5
Great clouds roll over the hills
F
Bringing darkness from above

CHORUS
D#5
But if you close your eyes,
A#5
Does it almost feel like
G5 F
Nothing changed at all
D#5
And if you close your eyes,
A#5
Does it almost feel like
G5 F
You've been here before?
D#5 F5
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
D#5 F5
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
VERSE 2 [Same as Verse 1]
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settled around us
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
[CHORUS]
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
BRIDGE
D#5 G5
Oh where do we begin?
F
The rubble or our sins?
D#5 G5
Oh where do we begin?
F
The rubble or our sins?
[Same as Verse]
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
REPEAT CHORUS
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all
[Play chorus chords]
Eh-eh-o-eh-o[x4]
