[Intro]
Bm G Bm
Bm G A
[Verse 1]
Bm D A D
The only lights they leave on here
A
are the exit signs
G D
who’s the next in line to go?
Bm D A D
Empty floors, reflective glass
A
You can see this future knows no past
G D
you know what’s going on
Em
there’s nothing left to do
Bm G
But roll on through, and beyond, down the road
A
You go then you’re gone
[Chorus]
Bm A G
Around the bend to the next blue sky
D A
This is the sound of me saying goodbye
Bm A G
Around the bend to the next blue sky
D A
This is the sound of me saying goodbye
[Post-Chorus]
Bm G Dsus2
Bm G A
[Verse 2]
Bm D A D
We walk these streets with tired eyes
A
To find something we recognize
G D
This used to be my town
Bm D A D
Like the dominos in the middle rows
A
Not the first to go
A
or the last to know
G D
We all fall down
Em
If I can’t get a witness
Bm
Can I at least get a drink?
G
Raise a glass to the last
A
As we step cross the brink
[Chorus]
Bm A G
Around the bend to the next blue sky
D A
This is the sound of me saying goodbye
Bm A G
Around the bend to the next blue sky
D A
This is the sound of me saying goodbye
Bm A G D A
Around the bend to the next blue sky
[Bridge]
Bm G Em
In our western dreams
G A
We could do no wrong
Bm G Em A D
And it feels alright til the lights come on
[Outro]
Em Dsus2
The sun was setting on the west
G A
The birds were singing in every tree
Bm N.C. Bm A G D A
Around the bend to the next blue sky
Bm A G D A
Bm A G
Around the bend the sun is shining
D A
This is the sound of the future rewinding
Bm A G D A
Bm A G D A
Around the Bend
Bm A G D A
Bm A G D A
[Fade Out]
