We can't find you now,

We'll just say you were never here.

Working for the church while

your life falls apart.

Not 100% sure about the chorus but it sounds alright to me. 
Enjoy

You can play just a regular C instead of C5 if you prefer that.
Fadd9 0010
C5    0033 

The (Fadd9) means that it'll sound fine without it, but if you 
want to throw it in there that sounds fine too.

C
Every night my dream's the same

Same old city with a different name
Fadd9
Men are coming to take me away
  C
I don't know why but I know I can't stay

C
There's a weight that's pressing down

Late at night you can hear the sound
Fadd9
Even the noise you make when you sleep
C
Can't swim across a river so deep

Gsus4                       C5
They know my name, 'cause I told it to them
         Gsus2                    (Fadd9)         
But they don't know where and they don't know when
Gsus4                         C
It's coming, when it's coming

C
There's a fear I keep so deep

Knew its name just before I could speak, yeah
Fadd9       C
Oh Oh Oh Oh

Gsus4                       C5
They know my name, 'cause I told it to them
         Gsus2                    (Fadd9)         C
But they don't know where and they don't know when
     Fadd9      C             Fadd9
It's coming, or when but it's coming  
             C
Keep the car running

C
If some night I don't come home

Please don't think I've left you alone
    Fadd9
The same place animals go when they die
    C
You can't climb across a mountain so high
    Fadd9
The same city where I go when I sleep
    C
You can't see across a river so deep

Gsus4                       C5
They know my name, 'cause I told it to them
         Gsus2                    (Fadd9)         C
But they don't know where and they don't know when
     Fadd9      C          Fadd9
It's coming, oh when is it coming  
             C       Fadd9
Keep the car running
             C       Fadd9
Keep the car running
             C       Fadd9
Keep the car running

Intro: C Am E G x2

C               Am  E              G
 In the suburbs I,    I learned to drive
         C                     Am    E                    G
 And you told me we?d never survive,   grab your mother?s keys, we?re leaving

C Am E G

C                     Am    E          G
 You always seemed so sure,   That one day we?d be fighting
C              Am    E             G
 In a suburban war,   your part of town against mine
           C                        Am     E           G
 I saw you standing on the opposite shore,  but by the time the first bombs fell
 C               Am     E                  G
 We were already bored,   We were already, already bored

Chorus:
C            Am               E           D
 Sometimes I can?t believe it, I?m moving past the feeling
C            Am               E           D                C     Am E G
 Sometimes I can?t believe it, I?m moving past the feeling again

     C                Am     E           G
 The kids wanna be so hard,    but in my dreams we?re still screaming
     C                   Am     E                G
 And running through the yard,   when all of the walls that they built in the 
 C                 Am     E                G
 Seventies finally fall,    And all of the houses they built in the
 C                 Am                          E                 G
 Seventies finally fall, meant nothing at all,  meant nothing at all, it meant nothing

Chorus:
C            Am               E           D
 Sometimes I can?t believe it, I?m moving past the feeling

 Sometimes I can?t believe it, I?m moving past the feeling and into the night

C Am E G
	C                      Am  E              G                        C     Am
 So can you understand,      why I want a daughter while I?m still young
           E                  G
 I want to hold her hand, and show her some beauty
   C                       Am    E             G
 Before all this damage is done,   but if it?s too much to ask
         C                Am                E    G
 If it?s too much to ask,    then send me a son

C                    Am  E                G
 Under the overpass,       in the parking lot we?re still waiting
      C               Am E              G
 It?s already passed,      so move your feet from hot pavement
     C              Am                     E                   G
 And into the grass,    cause it?s already past, it?s already, already past

Chorus:
C            Am               E           D
 Sometimes I can?t believe it, I?m moving past the feeling
C            Am               E           D                C     Am
 Sometimes I can?t believe it, I?m moving past the feeling again

E           D                C     Am
 I?m moving past the feeling again
E           D                C     Am
 I?m moving past the feeling again

 In my dreams we?re still screaming

 We?re still screaming

Afterlife, I think I saw what happens next
Oh it was just a glimpse of you, like looking through a window
Or a shallow sea
Could you see me?
And after all this time
It's like nothing else we used to know
And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on to the dead light
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know…


[Chorus]

F#              E
Can we work it out?
                  G#m                    B
Let's scream and shout 'till we work it out
F#                    E
Can we just work it out?
            G#m                      B
Scream and shout 'till we work it out?


[Bridge]

But you say
F#  E
Oh
               G#m
When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?

And you say
F#  E
Oh
              G#m
When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?
                 E
And where do we go?
             G#m
Where do we go?
             F#
Where do we go?
             E
Where do we go?


[Verse 3]
(same chords as above)

And after this
Can it last another night?
After all the bad advice
Had nothing at all to do with life
I've gotta know


[Chorus]

F#              E
Can we work it out?
                  G#m                    B
Let's scream and shout 'till we work it out

Can we just work it out?

Scream and shout 'till we work it out?

Oh

Where does it go?

And you say

Oh

When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?

Oh

When love is gone

Where did it go?

Oh

When love is gone

Where did it go?

Afterlife

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#

              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                       A
Right now is all we have you better make this count
Bm                       A
these are the moments i wish i could forget you.

D                            A                                          Bm
I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
    Em    A
lets run away.
D                             A                             Bm

    Em    A

I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

[intro x2]
A  E  D A

A                                        E
when there's no place you feel at home
              D                               A
and you think you'd be better off alone
A                                          E
when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

when you get yourself depressed
                      D                   A
because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot

[chorus]

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
