[Intro]
F# B A (2x)
 
F#                                    D      B
I'm making plans for the day all of this is through
 B                                        A
Seeing my path and hearing the song I'll sing
 F#                                    D                B
And food that I'll taste and all the drinks that I'll consume
 B                                    A
Return the smile on an unmasked friend
 F#                                     D                 B
As we take streets I don't walk down 'cause I want to avoid
 B                                      A
Fighting temptation, walk at a downtown pace
 F#                                       D           B
And treasure the crowds that once made me act so annoyed
  B                                      A       F#
Sometimes I wonder, how long 'til I'm a face in one?
 
 
[Verse 2]
 F#                                    D            B
You'd be surprised to learn what you could bear to lose
 B                                       A
Wanting and needing, not getting either one
 F#                              D                 B
And planning the future as if time is yours to choose
  B                                  A
Pick out a movie, a sandwich from a screen
  F#                              D         B
Yeah, how many days in life will I spend underground?
  B                             A
Hours in total, as many as it takes
 F#                             D       B
And how many ways of feeling lousy have I found?
  B                 A
Lately uncounted
 
 
[Chorus 1]
                E       F#
I've found a reason to exist
 E              F#
Written on the tile
 E              F#
Of the platform wall
 E             C#    B
Begging not to go extinct
 A               F#
To all those who saw
 
[Intro chords 4 measures]
F# B A
 
[Verse 3]
 F#                          D               B
How many times now have I walked into that room
   B
With the day shining through purple film?
  A         F#                              D               B
Combining sound from the corners that you use yourself to tune
  B                               A
Like a piano, well-tuned and walking slowly
  F#                              D            B
Socks on the carpet while some kid watches my shoes
   B
Feeling the sine like a bolt of lightning
  A         F#                               D             B
House of dreams, you were once my cure for New York City blues
  B                     A
Is this goodbye then?
 
 
[Chorus 2]
             E              F#
Will you be on the other side?
 E                 F#
Waiting there for me?
 E                F#
Nothing left to want
 E              C#         B     A                F#
Cashing in my claim to a world, life lived mostly free
 
[Instrumental Break]
F#             B    A
F#             B    A
B (16x)        F# (16x)
B              F#        B (6x) D (2x)
 
Then solo - not sure what chords the rhythm guitar plays behind that.
 
[Chorus 2]
 E            F#
On the other side
 E             F#
Waiting there for me
 E              F#
Nothing left to want
 E              C#         B     A                F#
Cashing in my claim to a world, life lived mostly free
