    Oh     there's no one but I 

    F#       G#m   B

can see some flickering lights

E G#m F#    G#m  B    E

Oh    I can hear some dogs yeah

barking in the backyards

E                 G#m F#

  And I smell gasoline

weren't those trees

for something





Chorus:

  E

Remembering the

warm warm nights

  B/Eb

Remembering the open

        C#m

arms of two years ago

Oh there's something

          G#m

like this parking lot

    B

And seeing the stars in 

E             B

morning I can see them

               C#m

from where I'm lying

      G#m      B

I can feel the cold cold

E

pavement against

    B             C#m

my skin when It's tingling

     G#m                E(hold)

It's tingling, it's tingling
