The Academy Is - Chicago

i couldn’t find any lyrics , let alone chords for this online ,
so i figured i’d do it all here .
standard tuning , no capo . not sure about the C#sus2 chord though –
please comment with a suggestion if you find it weird too .
other than that i’m fairly certain this is
spot – on perfect . this is my first tab/Chord thing ,
so let me off for little innacurracies!
i did a guitar tutorial for this song on youtube ,
here’s the link :

intro

E – A5

verse

E * E * /B E * /A
crushing dreams and crooked fault ,
E E/B E/A
trap me in a crowded parking lot ,

E E/D# D A
i feel the tide is turning ,

C#sus2 E
the ending chapter starts to fade ,
Dadd9 Gadd9
do i really belong here anymore , anyway?

E B/F#
i cant sleep on nights like these ,
C#sus2
stuck in chicago staring at the ceiling ,
A/E
im looking for something to believe in .
E
walk these city streets ,
B/F#
do you remember me , remember when ,
C#sus2
when i was all that you needed ,
A/E
chicago im leaving .

E * E * /B E * /A
i count my memories of you ,
E * E * /B E * /A
empty bottle midnight rendezvous ,
E * E * /D# D A
outside , insides burning .
C#sus2 E Dadd9 Gadd9
do i really belong here anymore , anyway?

E B/F#
i cant sleep on nights like these ,
C#sus2
stuck in chicago staring at the ceiling ,
A/E
im looking for something to believe in .
E
walk these city streets ,
B/F#
do you remember me , remember when ,
C#sus2
when i was all that you needed ,
A/E C# B
chicago im leaving .

B E
i’m leaving

interlude :

E – A5 – C#sus2 – E – B ( crescendo on the B )

E B/F#
i cant sleep on nights like these ,
C#sus2
stuck in chicago staring at the ceiling ,
A/E
im looking for something to believe in .
E
walk these city streets ,
B/F#
do you remember me , remember when ,
C#sus2
when i was all that you needed ,
A/E
chicago im leaving .

repeat last chorus until you’re dead from the awesome , then play :

E – A5

good luck!
