Em G
we used to be something surreal
C
others looked to us for what we built
Em G
we were envied until the point
C
the point in which we fell
Em G C
we fell by the wayside , and slowly watched ourselves die
Em G
a lonely death in which no one cared and no one came
C
when the walls cave in , we only have ourselves to blame

C Em D
and even if it’s dark at least we’ll be together
C Em D
slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever
C Em D
you better grab a hold and hold on for your life
C D
because you don’t get lucky twice

Em G C
now even if it’s perfect , i can’t get carried away
Em G C
and motivate my tongue in twisted ways
Em G C
it felt like a good night , for dancing and the moonlight
Em G C
in empty streets , well , everybody’s got a reason why
if we could only just get it right

C Em D
maybe it will all work out like in the movies
C Em D
but i know romeo must die before the ending
C Em D
with a final poison kiss delivered gently
C D G G Em D
because you don’t get lucky twice , and that’s the truth

G G
sing to me sweet , just like my memory
Em
if new york city still moves me
D
then i found something real
G G
i’ll be okay , i could go on for days
Em D
but i just don’t have the courage that it takes to be real

C Em D
and even if it’s dark at least we’ll be together
C Em D
slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever
C Em D
you better grab a hold and hold on for your life
C D
because you don’t get lucky twice
C D
no , you don’t get lucky twice
