Another couple kids with their heads on top 
C#5                                    C#sus4 
Just another stranger just another plot 
 B5                                           Bsus4 
Another track home where the city streets stop

Just another kid with another bored cop

Just another rust and dust facade 
C#5                                      C#sus4 
Just another key stuck broken in the lock

Just another scarecrow choking on a cough 

Oh come on!

C#5                                        C#sus4

C#5                                  C#sus4 
Just another lover turned enemy fight 
C#5                                C#sus4 
Just another blood and nicotine sky 

Oh come on!

   Like the last night on earth 
A          B             C#m

Like dead men
