[Intro]
G5 G5/E
G5 G5/E

[VERSE 1]
G Em Am Bm
The streets are empty, the bars and cafes too
G Em Am D7
The streetlights only changing 'cause they ain't got nothing better to do
G Em Am D7
You say it's like Christmas when nobody's around
G Em Am D7
When our city was still a secret before those carpetbaggers came to town

[CHORUS]
C/G D/A G G/F# Em(add11)
And the airports and train stations are full of desperate people
C/G D/A G G/F# Em
Trying to convince the gate agents that not all emergencies are equal
Am Cm G5 G5/E G5 G5/E
But no one is going anywhere soon

[VERSE 2]
G Em Am Bm
Inside the Safeway, it's like the Eastern Bloc
G Em Am D7
'Cause people have a way of getting crazy when they think they'll be dead in

a month
G Em Am D7
But you like the silence of the wind through the trees
G Em Am D7
And I like walking beside you through these days of no guarantees

[CHORUS]
C/G D/A G G/F# Em(add11)
And National Guard is on their way to protect us from our neighbors
C/G D/A G G/F# Em(add11)
And everyone who's tried to swim for it has drowned out past the breakers
C/G D/A G G/F# Em
And the airports and train stations are full of desperate people
Am Cm Em A7
But no one is going anywhere soon

[OUTRO]
C/G Cm G
No one is going anywhere soon
