Face the sun of my salvation

As Hathaway Jones would have made it his own feet

Fly by the wings of your creation
Chorus 1FCG
On the top of your head, there is a poem
AmF
The thought in my head, oh God only knows
CG
As everything else will disappoint you

I followed the light to the City of Roses
InstrumentalCFGFGFCVerse 2CFGF
It's a little-known fact that I can't cope
GFC
I'm the champion of repression

I've had it enough with the east coast
GFC
I'll die by the wings of my ambition
Chorus 2FCG
The city I left, the city of throes
AmF
The one that I loved, the city of hope
CG
As everything else will disappoint you
FCGAmF
I used to be young and bold, but now I'm of age, I'm getting so old
CG
I followed the light to the City of Roses
