C                     F            
Put the past away and slow things down
C                                           F
A crime's been committed and there's sirens all over town
             C                        F
There's some blood on his shirt and a cut on his cheek
          C                            F
And what he's done will forever be his worst memory

                 G
He's down at the lost hotel
              F             C
Where there's battles to be won
        G
But the silence overwhelms you
        F    C
And you come undone
         G
You lose all your good sense
           F        C
You go way over the edge
                   F
There's no turning back
             G              C         F
He's checked in to the lost hotel

     C                       F
She abandoned herself into a bottle of pills
C                               F
Life's dark highway was finally run out of thrills
C                           F
Not really sure what caused her child to die
               C                                     F
She thinks she finally found a way to leave all her worries behind


                  G
She's down at the lost hotel
              F             C
Where there's battles to be won
        G
But the silence overwhelms you
        F    C
And you come undone
         G
You lose all your good sense
           F        C
You go way over the edge
                   F
There's no turning back
              G              C         
She's checked in to the lost hotel


Solo:   Am  Em  Dm  G    Am  Em  Dm  F G

         C
So say a prayer for the weary
      F
Say a prayer for the lost
      C
Say a prayer for the hungry
                     F
They've all paid the highest cost
C
Hope is there to find
              F
We're just so quick to condemn
          C
Lay your hands on a desolate soul
      F
Cause someday you just might see them


            G
Down at the lost hotel
              F             C
Where there's battles to be won
        G
But the silence overwhelms you
        F    C
And you come undone
         G
You lose all your good sense
           F        C
You go way over the edge
                   F
There's no turning back
              G              C         
She's checked in to the lost hotel

                        F
Yeah there's no turning back
            G           C
Once you're in the lost hotel
