[Verse 1]
C5
Summer time and the wind is blowing outside
         C6/A
in lower Chelsea, and I don't know what I'm doing in this city
    Gsus4
The sun is always in my eyes
                       F5
It crashes through the windows, and I'm sleeping on the couch
                     C5
When I came to visit you
                                      C6/A
That's when I knew that I could never have you
                   Gsus4
I knew that before you did
                        F5
Still I'm the one who's stupid

[Chorus]
                 C5
And there's this burning
             C6/A
Like there's always been
     Gsus4
I've never been so alone
    F5
And I've never been so alive

[Verse 2]
C/G
Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by
    Am7
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes and you don't mind
    G6   Fmaj7
You smile and say the world,
           C/G
it doesn't fit with you, I don't believe you, you're so serene
  Am7
Careening through the universe
               G6
Your axis on a tilt
                     Fmaj7
You're guiltless and free
                           C5
I hope you take a piece of me with you

[Chorus]
              C5
And there are things I'd like to do
                 C6/A
That you don't believe in
            Gsus4
I'd like to build something
                             F5
But you will never see it happen
                 C5
And there's this burning
             C6/A
Like there's always been
     Gsus4
I've never been so alone
    F5
And I've never been so alive

[Bridge]
C5 C6/A Gsus4 F5

                 Gsus4
And there's this burning, uh huh,
                  F5
Yeah there's this burning, yeah yeah yeah!

[Instrumental]
C/G Amaj7 G6 Fmaj7

[Verse 3]
C/G
Where's the soul? I wanna know
                Amaj7
New York City's evil, the surface is everything
                  G6
But I could never do that
                  F
Someone would see through that
                C/G
And this is the last time
          Amaj7
We'll be friends again
G6
I'll get over you
              F
You'll wonder who I am

[Chorus]
                 C/G
And there's this burning
                  Amaj7
Just like there's always been
     G6
I've never been so alone, alone,
    F                            C/G
And I've, I've, never been so alive!

[Verse 4]

     C5
I go home to the coast, it starts to rain
             C6/A
I paddle out on the water, alone
          Gsus4
Taste the salt, taste the pain
        F5
I'm not thinking of you again
C5
Summer dies and swells rise
                     C6/A
The sun goes down in my eyes, see this rolling wave
Gsus4
Darkly
                    F5
Coming to take me home

[Outro]
         Cmaj7
And I've never been so alone
    Fmaj7
And I've never been so alive
