There was a point I started barking like a dog
   G                   Bm       E     C                 G       Bm     E    C
My command of new languages did not impress you but the howling drew a crowd
    G                 Bm     E              C             G          Bm E  C
The view from your roof was obscured by the street lights glowing red
    G          Bm             E            C         G             Bm     E C
The cloud cover sucked up the sound like a new quilt tuck-tied to your bed


G6              G6/C
You called it a stunning sunset
G6                        D

I call it the last of the good light
    C                    F          C
And perfect waste of the night          comin down on us
G6                     G6/C
You said that we could wait for sunrise
G6                D
I don't have that kind of time
    C                    F
And we left the wasted night

waiting for the soft rewind
        C               G C G
And the voice said: This is us
C     G C G
This is us
C     G C G
This is us
C     G C G
This is us
