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

it up in effigy
