Intro:
C                      G                     F
  And we keep speeding, and we keep speeding
C                      G                     F
  And we keep crashing, and we keep crashing
C                      G                     F
  And we keep reaching, and we keep reaching
C                    G                       F
  And we keep crying, 'til we start laughing

       C        G          F
Long before my fall from grace
       C        G         F
For a piece of me, they appeared
         C            G       F
From the throat, I'm tied to you
       C          G          F
All of us, still cracked in two

Am                                C
   And the ones who are weak cry "carry me"

   But the rings are just for show
Am                         C
   Her beauty is a form of charity
