 C#
Sleep, sleep with the lights on
Shuttered with shades drawn
There's too many windows
Noise, cars on the freeway
Attempting a clean break
There's nowhere left to go
Watching the roots weave
Through cracks in the concrete

Chorus:
  A                 B
Plates, they will shift
  G#m         A
Houses will shake
 G#m          C#
Fences will drift
 B        E
We will awake
A        B
Only to find
 G#m           A
Nothing's the same
 G#m           C#
Nothing's the same

Home, home is a fire
Burning reminder
Of where we belong, love
With walls built up around us
The bricks make me nervous
They're only so strong, love
They're only so strong, love

Chorus:
Plates, they will shift
Houses will shake
Fences will droop
We will awake
Only to find
Nothing's the same
Nothing's the same
Nothing's the same
Nothing's the same
As yesterday
As yesterday
