Verse 1:

D                      G                           D
There was smoke in the air, When he came around and saw

               G
He was really alone

D                  G                   D              
Memories look like blood in the water, Sweet and ugly pain

G
Just like confetti in the rain

D                    G
He was known for his bedside manner

   F#                     G
He wanted to believe That people only hear what they see

 D                 G
He had a good time being the bad guy

F#                             G
He didn't wanna understand why That old song makes him cry

Chorus:

A                  G                              D
I remember when it felt like We were walking with God

                                        A
Little heaven when the sun goes down

                G
Walking hand in hand down On the promenade

D G F# G (x1)

Verse 2:

D                 G                          D
He was alone in a dark room, Overlooking the mall

                  G                  D
With a gun in his hand and no one to call

                     G                     
He was waiting for a reason to fade and run

D                       G
Just like photos in a window That turn blue in the sun


D               G
People used to call it a breakdown

          F#                         G
Now we medicate to make it go away

D                         G
People used to call it a mid-life crisis

        F#                                G
He just sits there, looks at pictures of himself

                     A
From way back in the day


Chorus:

A                G                              D
Remember when it felt like We were walking with God

                           A
Getting stupid in a stolen car

                   G
Making love in the garage Behind the promenade


Bridge:

D    F#
     I think I need to slow down

G    E
     I think I need to slow my roll

D    F#
     I need to put the gun down

G                    E
     I feel so lost, I feel so out of control

D                 F#                G
I broke myself in pieces to make my name

                          A#
I broke those people dumb enough to get in my way

D                  F#                    G
Now I look in the mirror and I can't see me

                               A#
How can you swallow the world and still be hungry?

D                G                              D
Remember when it felt like We were walking with God


Holding hands with my dad and my mom 

A              G
Walking in the light to see you sitting


On the promenade
