E E F#m E E E F#m G#m
F#m E B E A E


Verse 1:
C#m       B
  I watched the sun cut
       A   E
through your bedroom
C#m       B
  And make its way across
  A  E C#m     B
the floor   I drifted off
         E
to somewhere and back
       A
to where you are
  C#m
The lights are up
  B          A  E
We made it through the bars


Refrain 1:
A
Like a lost stray
E
I'm coming home again
A
Trying to fly straight
E
But every now and then
A
life becomes grey
E
And it takes a lot of
    A
sin to feel alive on the
 E
streets here at night
Verse 2:
C#m       B
  But nothing's ever
    A  E C#m
lost forever   I'll
    B
find my way up off
  A  E C#m     B
the floor   But even on
         E
my best days I'm half
      A
of who you are I fucked
  C#m
it up and I can't
B       A  E
wash away the scars


Refrain 2:
A
Like a lost stray
E
I'm coming home again
A
Trying to fly straight
E
But every now and then
A
life becomes grey
E
And it takes a lot of
    A
sin to feel alive on the
 E
streets here at night


Chorus 1:
A
 I know I won't break
E
 but if you want to take
B        E
All I have we'll burn
  E
it up in effigy
A
 It's been a tail spin
E
 It's been a whirlwind
B        C#m
All I have we'll burn
     E
it up in effigy
E
 I'll play a new part
E
 I'll make a new start
B        E
All I was we'll burn
     E
it up in effigy
A
 It's such a long war
E
 but what I want more
  B       C#m
is you and me The rest
      E
can burn in effigy


Instrumental:
F#m A E C#m x3
F#m A E


Chorus 2:
A
 I know I won't break
E
 but if you want to take
B        E
All I have we'll burn
  E
it up in effigy
A
 It's been a tail spin
E
 It's been a whirlwind
B        C#m
All I have we'll burn
     E
it up in effigy
E
 I'll play a new part
E
 I'll make a new start
B        E
All I was we'll burn
     E
it up in effigy
A
 It's such a long war
E
 but what I want more
  B       C#m
is you and me The rest
      E   A
can burn in effigy
