D (6)
I wanna run, I want to hide
G (2)
I wanna tear down the walls that hold me inside
Bm (2) A (2)
I wanna reach out And touch the flame
Csus9 (4)
Where the streets have no name.
D (6)
I wanna feel, sunlight on my face
G (2)
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
Bm (2) A (2)
I wanna take shelter from the poison rain
Csus9 (4)
Where the streets have no name
Chorus:
D (4)
Where the streets have no name, Where the streets have no name
G (4)
We're still building then burning down love, burning down love
Bm (2) A (2)
And when I go there, I go there with you
D (4)
It's all I can do
D (6)
The city's a flood, and our love turns to rust
G (2)
We're beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust
Bm (2) A (2)
I'll show you a place high on a desert plain,
Csus9 (4)
Where the streets have no name
Chorus
Outro Chorus:
D (4)
It's all I can do, Our love turns to rust
G (4)
We're beaten and blown by the wind, Blown by the wind.
D (6)
Oh and I see love, see our love turn to rust
G (4)
And we're beaten and blown by the wind, blown by the wind
Bm (2) A (2)
Oh when I go there, I go there with you, it's all I can do
