Escape The Nest

Intro: Am G F G (x2)

Am                  G
Buildings in clouds here
    F                  G
Our time and our place dear
       Am             G
There's life in us yet love
      F                   G
These walls we will climb above
   Am              G
We really our ants now
   F                G
Escape the nest somehow
  Am            G
I ache for a feeling
    F               G      Dm  G
You came and you poured it in,
   repeat intro
it in.

Am                  G
Buildings in clouds here
    F                  G
Our time and our place dear
       Am             G
There's life in us yet love
      F                 G   Dm  G
These walls we will climb above,
 repet intro
above.

     Am
Look up
            G                 C
Through the trees to feel as small as you can,
    Dm       F      G        Am
You hear the clocks counting down,
               G               C
The nights are longer now than ever before,
    Dm      F              G        repeat intro

But now you see the lights from the town.


     Am                  G
I am drained and I am empty
     F                 G
I've still got love in me
        Am              G
There's eyes in the sky tonight
F                G
Watching us lose the fight
   Am              G
We really are ants now
  F                 G
Escape the nest somehow
  Am            G
I ache for a feeling

    F                   G  Dm  G
You came and you poured it in,
   repeat intro
it in.

     Am
Look up
            G                 C
Through the trees to feel as small as you can,
    Dm       F      G        Am
You hear the clocks counting down,
               G               C
The nights are longer now than ever before,
    Dm      F              G        repeat intro (x2)
But now you see the lights from the town.
