Listen to the song for the strumming patterns, and where the song picks up and slows down.
(*Piano first verse but if you wanna play it on guitar itâs the same chords as the second verse)
Broke the winterâs back
And split for the Sun
Shot through the night from a frozen gun
With my eyes to the skies
And one foot to the ground
I really gottaâ go â¦Away
--
Itâs a rough nâ tumble come down at the break of day
Sitting here staring out across the bay
With that sunrise in your eyes
Thereâs never really too much to say
But I really gottaâ go. â¦Away
--
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable
And Iâm up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set things right
--
She talks with her hands and sheâs saying goodbye
Nobodyâs gonnaâ tell me why
They just say time, time heals all
But I donât believe them
--
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable
And Iâm up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
(let it ring)
Trying to set things right â¦â¦allnight
--
(*Piano verse, if you want to play same verse chords as above)
Now time rolls on religiously, swift and sly
Bullet train full of souls riding through the night
Everyone thinks they can slow it down
I used to be like that before I knew you
--
There ainât nothing as dead as a dead romance
Nothing more alive than the city tonight
Storefront windows reflecting me
Where my steel cut heart can feel the electricity humm
Look at me now, whose gonnaâ take me there
From this lighting and the thunder and you, the eighth wonder
--
(*Piano bridge, just C if you feel like playing on guitar)
She talks with her hands and sheâs saying goodbye
Nobodyâs gonnaâ tell me why
They just say time, time heals all
But I donât, I donât, I donât believe them
--
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable and Iâm up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set things right
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable and Iâm up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set things right
--
Oooo look at me now, whose gonnaâ take me there
From this lighting and the thunder and you, the eighth wonder
All nightâ¦â¦.night
--
She sang rock nâ roll with the devil,She sang rock nâ roll with the devil(x4)
(guitar solo)
(x3)
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable and Iâm up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set thingsâ¦â¦.right
