D ---> D Dsus2 Dsus4 C ---> C Cadd9 Csus4 Am --> Am Asus2 Asus4 C/G (3 0 2 0 1 3) [Verse] The world keeps getting smaller ’til it closes ’round my room And everything I feel now Is hard and fast and true My window is a spotlight On the madness down below It takes a silent figure To make this place a home [Chorus] Now the candles burn all night Without you And the moon hangs out of sight So blue Em7 Cadd9 On Seventh Avenue [Verse] I gave you what you wanted And it took so many years Now I’m just a part of The traffic and the tears I am not a lighthouse Not the answer or the truth But the love that I held onto Is safe inside this room [Chorus] Now the candles burn all night Without you And the moon hangs out of sight So blue Em7 Cadd9 On Seventh Avenue [Interlude] [Chorus] Now the candles burn all night Without you And the moon hangs out of sight So blue Em7 Cadd9 On Seventh Avenue [Slow fade-out] N.C (all of the stories from all of our lives N.C. Are not lost from memory on these streets tonight)
