Verse: 
F        Am     C       Dm    F 
They fell out into the navy night 
    Am      C 
with smiles of stone 
Dm       F        Am        C 
walking down roads that glittered, 
   Dm            F       G 
with winter light and snow 
F           G    C       D      G 
linking thin arms, they swam the sea 
 Am   Bb 
a soul sea 
  F         G        Em        Dm 
gleefully cackling, bitter and twisted 
       C        G     Am 
burning like golden rings 
                 F             G         Am 
it was the burning of the bright young things 

    F         Am      C 
not a penny on them, but 
            Dm      F 
they had expensive needs 
     Am       C      Dm 
flying down, hot city streets 
         F         Am 
country and the city mouse 
      C              Dm 
found an old Dutch Pancake house 
        F        G       Am 
ordered a plate of syrupy lies 
(play A lower C) 
C                     G 
yeah they ate 'em all up 
                Am 
and licked the plate dry 


(play these notes an octave lower) 
F         G       Em      F 
ordered 8, left without paying 
F         G     Am 
syrupy, syrupy lies 
F               G                Em       Dm 
ran down the streets, with pancake gods saying, 
C                  G              Am 
"we can see your guilty, guilty eyes 
C                 G       Am 
tonight, a pancake thief dies." 

Pre-Chorus:

A           F sharp 
run as fast as you can 
A           F sharp 
run as fast as you can 
A           F sharp 
run as fast as you can 
    A   C sharp  D 
as fast as you can 
    A   C sharp  D 
as fast as you can

Verse: (start from the lower keys as in the beginning) 

  F       Am       C    Dm     F 
sleepy when drink the magical winds 
Am          C 
parting winds, all of the bright things 
F          Am      C            Dm 
split them apart, cement on their wake 
F                      G 
to places where the pancake gods wait 

   F              G 
one got lost and ended up 
   C 
in Leytonstone 
F                  G 
other missed his train or 
               C             Dm 
lost his wallet, man bag, and his phone 
        F              G 
sixty pounds spent on the black cab 
         C        Dm 
all the way back home 
         C        Dm 
all the way back home 
         C        Dm 
all the way back home 

    F 
gods chirped, 
   G           Em        Dm 
"oh you're not so smug anymore, 
F                   G        Am 
karma kicked your butt, real good 
        F           G         Em          Dm 
and next time you try making a runner for the door 
       C              G         Am 
don't be tight, just pay for your food 
       C              G         Am 
don't be tight, just pay for your food 


Pre-Chorus:
A           F sharp 
run as fast as you can 
A           F sharp 
run as fast as you can 
A           F sharp 
run as fast as you can 
    A   C sharp  D 
as fast as you can 
    A     C sharp D 
as fast as you can
