🎸 Verse 1:
        F                                   Am/E
Oh it’s gone too far and it hurts us both I know
        Am
So just say you won’t forget me
     G
Just say you won’t let go
        F                                                     Am/E
And the fire burns bright but I’m scared cause the wind still blows
             Am
You were the only thing in focus
             G
That’s why I lost sight long ago

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
      F
And I know I’m too enamored
       Am/E
By the flames that break me down
    Am
And I trust my desires
         G
But they run me to the ground
     F
This love is in my nature
     Am/E
Even though it makes me bleed
   Am
So even though you kill me
           G
You’re the one thing I still need


🎸 Chorus:
          F
So I will fly
                               Am/E
If it means it would make you smile
           Am
And I will fall
                        G
I’ll fall for miles and miles
          F
Oh who am I
                             Am/E
But someone that you used to love
             Am                            G
So even if I lost my wings to you I’d be alright
                  F
Cause I’d be your Icarus


🎸 Verse 2:
             Am/E
And down and down I would fall below
     Am
To a place where all the memories
     G                                         F
Fall from the sky like snow, ooooh aaaah oh oh ooh ooh
                  Am/E
And who are we to set the river’s flow
         Am
If I was bound to be naive
              G
Then you’d be bound to let me go


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
      F
And I know I’m too enamored
       Am/E
By the flames that break me down
    Am
And I trust my desires
         G
But they run me to the ground
     F
This love is in my nature
     Am/E
Even though it makes me bleed
   Am
So even though you kill me
           G
You’re the one thing I still need


🎸 Chorus:
          F
So I will fly
                               Am/E
If it means it would make you smile
           Am
And I will fall
                        G
I’ll fall for miles and miles
          F
Oh who am I
                             Am/E
But someone that you used to love
             Am                            G
So even if I lost my wings to you I’d be alright
