[Intro]
Am Em F Dm x2
[Verse]
Am Em
Old yellow bricks, love's a risk
F Dm
Quite the little escapologist
Am Em
Looked so miffed when you wished
F Dm
For a thousand places better than this
[Verse]
Am Em
You are the fugitive but you don't know what you're running from
F Dm
You can't kid us and you couldn't trick anyone
Am Em F Dm
Houdini love, you don't know what you're running away from
[Chorus]
Dm Em F Em
Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?
Dm Em F Em
Blinded by nostalgia
Dm Em F Em Dm
Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?
[Verse]
Am Em
She was enraged by the way
F Dm
That the emperor put traps in the cage
Am Em
And the days she being dull
F Dm
Lead to nights reading beer bottles
[Verse]
Am Em
You're such a fugitive but you don't know what you're running from
F Dm
You can't kid us and you couldn't trick anyone
Am Em F Dm
Houdini love, you don't know what you're running away from
[Chorus]
Dm Em F Em
Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?
Dm Em F Em
Blinded by nostalgia
Dm Em F Em
Who wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up?

[Chorus]
Dm Em F Em
You're at a loss, just because
Dm Em F Em
It wasn't all that you thought it was
Dm Em F Em Dm Em F Em
You are a fugitive but you don't know what you're running away from
Dm Em F Em
She said I want to sleep in the city that never wakes up
Dm Em F Em
And revel in nostalgia
Dm Em F Em
I know I said he wants to sleep in the city that never wakes up but
Dsus2
Dorothy was right though
