Verse 1:
                                                    Ab5
I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm
                                                      Ab5
And the scars that mark my body, they're silver and gold
     Ebm       Eb                           Abm
My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones
                            Db                     Abm
It keeps my veins hot, the fire's found a home in me
                                      Db
I move through town, I'm quiet like a fight
         Abm                                  Ebm
And my necklace is of rope, I tie it and untie it

Pre-Chorus:
        Abm
And now people talk to me, but nothing ever hits home
 B                               Gb
People talk to me, and all the voices just burn holes
                    Abm
I'm done with it (Ooh)

Chorus:
                                  Ebm
This is the start of how it all ends
                                               Gb
They used to shout my name, now they whisper it

I'm speeding up and this is the
Db                           Ebm                   Abm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
                                   Ebm
We're at the start, the colors disappear
                                                   Gb
I never watch the stars, there's so much down here

So I just try to keep up with them
Db                            Ebm                   Abm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

Verse 2:
                                            Db
I dream all year, but they're not the sweet kinds
          Abm                                          Ebsus4  Ebm
And the shivers move down my shoulder blades in double time

Pre-Chorus:
        Abm                    Ab
And now people talk to me I'm slipping out of reach now
B                                 Gb
People talk to me, and all their faces blur
               Abm
But I got my fingers laced together and I made a little prison
         Gb                                            Abm
And I'm locking up everyone who ever laid a finger on me

I'm done with it (Ooh)

Chorus:
                                  Ebm
This is the start of how it all ends
                                               Gb
They used to shout my name, now they whisper it

I'm speeding up and this is the
Db                           Ebm                   Ab
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
       Abm                            Ebm
We're at the start, the colors disappear
                                                   Gb
I never watch the stars, there's so much down here

So I just try to keep up with them
Db                            Ebm                   Abm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

Outro:
Abm
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
                 Ebm
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
Gb
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
                  Db                          Ebm
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat-beat-beat-beat
