“Hotel Lights” by Amy Cook
NO CAPO. These are the chords I hear--there is no chorus per se, but it's a really great song. Please rate!
F C
All the girls dressed like candy
G
Looking oh so full in love with all the world
F C
And the boys with their messed up hair
G
And secrets that they keep behind their eyes
G F#m C
My face was always pressed against the glass
G F#m C
You were the only one who ever asked
F G
"Why don't you come inside?"
G F G C
We watched the hotel lights and I was mesmerized
F C
Voices float through the walls
G
And from the streets of New York City down below
F C
Some are surprised to find the world is just as small and sad
G
The higher that they climb
G F#m C
Well I guess we're just the sentimental kind
G Am F#m
Play that Alejandro one more time
G C
We hope for brighter days
G
Just one more war away and another step behind
F Am G
You once told me that when the night is frozen wait for the golden sun
F Am C
If that's the one thing you believe in well, then, I guess we're even, love
G
It's comin' up
C G C
What once were dreams are now just souvenirs
F#m G
Of the people that we used to be
G C
Like these Chelsea nights
F
I had so many things to tell you love
G Am
But you were drunk with wine
F#m
You know I've loved you from the very start
G C F#m
And if you should ever break my foolish heart
G
Don't waste your sad regrets
C
Don't break your tenderness
F C G
The hotel lights were ours
G Am
No matter what comes next
F C G
The hotel lights were ours
