Intro : G+G D MajorD A augmentedA A majorA (x2)

      G+G        D MajorD
Cheated and lied, broken so bad
      A augmentedA       A augmentedA
You made a vow, never get mad
       G+G         D MajorD
You play the game, though it's unfair
        A augmentedA        A augmentedA
They're all the same, who can compare?
G+G           D MajorD           A augmentedA  A augmentedA
First you lose trust, then you get worried

      G+G        D MajorD
Night after night, bar after club
       A augmentedA          A augmentedA
Dropping like flies, who woke you up
       G+G            D MajorD
On the front lawn, sprinklers turned on
       A augmentedA           A augmentedA
It's not your house, where'd you go wrong?
G+G          D MajorD          A augmentedA  A augmentedA
First you get hurt, then you feel sorry

       G+G             D MajorD
Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
      A augmentedA             A augmentedA
Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt
       G+G           D MajorD
How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve
         A augmentedA             A augmentedA
To wait around forever when, you were there first
G+G          D MajorD          A augmentedA A augmentedA
First you get hurt, then you feel sorry


       G+G        D MajorD
There comes a time, in a short life
     A augmentedA       A augmentedA
Turn it around, get a rewrite
     G+G         D MajorD
Call it a dark, night of the soul
      A augmentedA         A augmentedA
Ticking of clocks, gravity?s pull
G+G          D MajorD           A augmentedA A augmentedA
First you get close, then you get worried

       G+G             D MajorD
Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
      A augmentedA             A augmentedA
Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt
       G+G           D MajorD
How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve
         A augmentedA             A augmentedA
To wait around forever when, you were there first
G+G          D MajorD          A augmentedA  A augmentedA
First you get hurt, then you feel sorry


G+G          B minorBm
You're going silent, the silent treatment
A augmentedA           A augmentedA
It's not inviting now, don't deny what you meant
G+G        D MajorD
You get excited, you get excited
A augmentedA           A augmentedA
You got a feel it, oh, at least you can pretend
G+G         D MajorD
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
A augmentedA            A augmentedA
You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends
G+G        D MajorD        A augmentedA A augmentedA
You get excited, you get excited


FF       G+G             D MajorD
Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
      A augmentedA             A augmentedA
Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt
       G+G           D MajorD
How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve
         A augmentedA             A augmentedA
To wait around forever when, you were there first
       G+G             D MajorD
Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
      A augmentedA             A augmentedA
Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt
       G+G           D MajorD
How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve
         A augmentedA             A augmentedA
To wait around forever when, you were there first


G+G          D MajorD           A augmentedA A augmentedA
First you get close, then you get worried      (x4)


G+G         D MajorD
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
A augmentedA           A augmentedA
You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends
G+G         D MajorD
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
G+G           D MajorD             A augmentedA
