[Am]Here in the streets so mechanised
[G]Rise to the bottom of the meaning of life
[Am]Studied all the rules and I want no part
[G]But I let you in just to break this heart
[Am]Even though it was only one night it was
[G]........Fucking strange
[Am]Nina's in the bedroom,
[G]She said time to go now
But lea[D]vin', it ain't easy
I've g[E]ot to let go, Oh I've got to let go
And the ho[G]urs they ran slow
I said every night she just can't stop sayin'
