Wait ’til you’re announced, we’ve not yet lost all our graces The hounds will stay in chains, look upon your greatness That you’ll send, the call I’ll send

[C]Call all the ladies out, [C]they’re in their finery [Am]A hundreds jewels on throats, [G]a hundred jewels between teeth [C]Now bring my boys in, [C]their skin in craters like the moon [Am]The moon we love like a [G]brother, while he glows through the room

[C]Dancing around the lies we tell, [C]dancing around big eyes as well [Am]Even the [G]comatose they don’t dance and tell

[F]We live in cities [Am]you’ll never see on screen [G]Not very pretty, but we [Em]sure know how [Am]to run things [F]Living in [Am]ruins of the palace within my [G]dreams And you know, [Am]we’re on each other’s [F]team

I’m kind of [Am]over getting told to throw my [G]hands up in the air, so there [C]So all the cups got broke, [C]shards beneath our feet [Am]But it wasn’t my fault [G] [C]And everyone’s competing [C]for a love they won’t [Am]receive ‘Cause what this [G]palace wants is release

[F]We live in cities [Am]you’ll never see on screen [G]Not very pretty, but we [Em]sure know how [Am]to run things [F]Living in [Am]ruins of the palace within my [G]dreams And you know, we’re on each other’s [F]team

[F]I’m kind of [Am]over getting told to throw my [G]hands up in the air So there, [F]I’m kinda [Am]older than I was when I [G]revelled without a care So there…

[F]We live in cities [Am]you’ll never see on screen [G]Not very pretty, but we [Em]sure know how [Am]to run things [F]Living in [Am]ruins of the palace within my [G]dreams And you know, we’re on each other’s [F]team

[F] [Am]And you know, we’re on each [G]other’s team We’re on each other’s [F] [Am]team We’re on each other’s [G]team And you know, and you know, and you [F]know
