[Verse 1]
C G C
Lost in the valley of malls
C G C
The kids are all eating themselves
C G Am Amadd9
Living on capsules and balls
C G C
Thinking that there’s nowhere else at all
[Verse 2]
C G C
Flicking a match in the sky
C G C
Turning my back on my own
C G Am Amadd9 C
Finally the bottle’s bone dry, with a message inside
G C
That says that I’m gone

I’m a dull boy with a dead dream

The city’s shrinking down
C G Am
I think it’s time to leave this town
C G Am
Pulling out while there’s still time
C G Am
Littered all my memories behind

They don't play chords in the choruses but you could play this:
CHORUS
F A#m
I?m a dull boy with a dead dream
D#
Searching for a pulse at any given scene
I updated the tab
+2

Instead of the D#m in the Intro/Outro Main riff part I believe it should be a A#m.
Otherwise this is a great.
+1

First and 3rd line of the chorus can have that Amadd9 chord at the end, and the 2nd and 4th line should be C, G, C I believe.
