intro
SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus
I grew up in a house like this, we knew the groan of every stair
SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus
All the walls seemed to listen in, all the years seemed to take up air
DO(9) DO(9) RE SOL/SI DO(9) DO(9) RE SOL/SI
When you dreamed it was of the wind blowing cold and hard
DO(9) DO(9) RE SOL/SI LAm7 LAm7 RE RE RE RE
In those dreams you thought you lived in a house of cards
SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus
[instrumental]
I grew up in a town like this, we knew the names of every street
On the surface it looked so safe, but it was perilous underneath
That's the place you shoved your doubts and hid your ugly scars
God forbid if word got out about your house of cards
DO DO DO DO RE RE SOL SOL/FA#
And now I feel the wind about to blow, and baby I'm so scared
MIm MIm SIm7 SIm7
You're repeating the past instead of letting it go
SIm7 LAm7 SOL SOL
(go) And I don't wanna go back there
DO(9) DO(9) RE SOL/SI DO(9) DO(9) RE SOL/SI DO(9) DO(9) RE SOL/SI LAm7 LAm7 RE RE

SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus
[instrumental]
Now we're standing here face to face, afraid to move or else
I wanna prop up this fragile place, I can't do it all by myself
'Cause when we dream, it's of the wind, blowing cold and hard
When we wake up we still live in a house of cards
'Cause when we dream, it's of the wind, blowing cold and hard
When we wake up we still live in a house of cards
SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus SOL SOLsus
