D So this is what you meant when you said that you were spent? A Bm And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top, Don't hold back G Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check D A I don't ever want to let you down Bm I don't ever want to leave this town G 'Cause after all This city never sleeps at night... D It's time to begin, isn't it? Bm I get a little bit bigger, but then, Em I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was G Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am? Interlude: D A Bm G D So this is where you fell, and I am left to sell A the path that heaven runs through miles of clouded hell, Bm right to the top Don't look back G Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain check D I don't ever want to let you down A Bm I don't ever want to leave this town G 'Cause after all This city never sleeps at night... D It's time to begin, isn't it? Bm I get a little bit bigger, but then, Em I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was G Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am? -same chord pattern as before- It's time to begin, isn't it? I get a little bit bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am? Bm A This road never looked so lonely, G This house doesn't burn down slowly, Em G to ashes, to ashes... -same chord pattern as before- It's time to begin, isn't it? I get a little bit bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am? Bm It's time to begin, isn't it? A I get a little bit bigger, but then, G I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was Em G Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am? Outro: D D D D
