[Verse 1]
C G/B
Neon flickers with a pale glow
Fadd9 C/E
And all the shadows that come and go
C G/B Am7 Am
Sometimes I can hear them laugh and cry
G/B C G/B
In my lonely room with a view
Fadd9 C/E
I can't sleep and so I think of you
C G/B Am7 Am
And watch the world as it passes by
[Pre-Chorus]

I can't close my eyes............

I can't close my eyes............

Gadd9
This is my window to the world
C6
All of the lonely boys and girls
Am9 G/B
Are a reflection in my eyes
Cadd9
Of me and you

This is my window to it all
C6
I see the heroes rise and fall
Am9 G/B
This is my window watching the world
Cadd9
And I can see
[Verse 2]
C G/B
As the night turns into day
Fadd9 C/E
Old ladies shuffle by and wave
C G/B Am7 Am
And the kids sell drugs to cars that slowly cruise
G/B C G/B
Young lovers walk across my street
Fadd9 C/E
Oblivious to the refugees
C G/B Am7 Am
And the lonely lost baby, that's me and you
[Pre-Chorus]

I can't close my eyes............

I can't close my eyes............
