Tom: G
       G
It's a quarter past midnight
      Em
As we cut through the city
Yeah yeah yeah
    G
The streets are getting restless
     Em
Good times bad decisions
Yeah yeah yeah
       G
It's a quarter past midnight
                   Em
And the sirens are mending some hearts
              G
But we're the losers on the back seats
                   Em
Singing "Love Will Tear Us Apart"
                    G
It's a quarter past midnight
                     Em
Still we're fighting tomorrow
                    G
It's a quarter past midnight
                       Em
But we're just getting going
[Chorus]
   C
We keep on running
G
Running through a red light
Bm                            Em
Like we're trying to burn the night away
 C      G     Bm     Em
Away -way oh away -way oh oh
C                   G
This is my favorite part oh
Bm                   Em
Help me piece it all together darling
C               G
Before it falls apart oh
Bm
Help me piece it all together
[Verse 2]
       G
It's a quarter past midnight
                     Em
And the speakers are blowing
Yeah yeah
            G
We want the bodies on the billboards
              Em
Not the lives underneath them
Yeah yeah yeah
              G
And now we're crawling up the walls again
          Em
And its a quarter past the world
        G
And you said we'd leave this place in dust
              Em
And fall from heaven straight through hell
[Pre-Chorus]
                      G
We never know what we have
                      Em
We never knew what we had
[Chorus]
   C
We keep on running
G
Running through a red light
Bm                            Em
Like we're trying to burn the night away
 C      G     Bm     Em
Away -way oh away -way oh oh
C                 G
Why are we always chasing after something
Bm                          Em
Like we trying to throw our lives away
 C      G     Bm     Em
Away -way oh away -way oh oh
C                   G
This is my favorite part oh
Bm                   Em
Help me piece it all together darling
C               G
Before it falls apart oh
Bm
Help me piece it all together
[Bridge]
G
I can't remember
Em
I can't remember
G
I can't remember
Em
I can't remember
       G
It's a quarter past midnight
                    Em
And the secrets are flowing
    G
Our lips are getting looser
                  Em
I don't know what I'm saying
We never knew what we had
I never know what I've had
[Chorus]
   C
We keep on running
G
Running through a red light
Bm                            Em
Like we're trying to burn the night away
 C      G     Bm     Em
Away -way oh away -way oh oh
C                 G
Why are we always chasing after something
Bm                          Em
Like we trying to throw our lives away
 C      G     Bm     Em
Away -way oh away -way oh oh
C                   G
This is my favorite part oh
Bm                   Em
Help me piece it all together darling
C               G
Before it falls apart oh
Bm
Help me piece it all together
