• Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:

 Em            Bm         C                   D
Just about the time your heart breaks like a wheel
 Em               Bm                C
Not in a straight line, but all in pieces
 D                   Em       Bm        C        D
Some you'll leave behind on a road you won't revise
         Em      Bm           C         D
No, you won't revisit that dirty compromise.


Chorus:

C         D      G     D       C
Now you only dream in peaceful blue
         D               Em         D     C
And the morning doesn't even scare you anymore
           D                 Em               D        C
You are a phoenix with your feathers still a little wet
           Em              D             C
Baby, the ashes just look pretty on your eyes.
 C             D                    C        D
Pretty on your eyes, pretty on your eyes

Verse 2:

       Em        Bm        C              D
So look up, up ahead The city lights are dancing for you
Em             Bm      C              D           Em
  Or is it the aurora burning off the edges of the sky?
        Bm        C    D             Em    Bm
Don't cry, don't cry, that’s all over   now
C                D
That’s all over now.


Chorus:

C         D      G     D       C
Now you only dream in peaceful blue
         D               Em         D     C
And the morning doesn't even scare you anymore
           D                 Em               D        C
You are a phoenix with your feathers still a little wet
           Em              D             C
Baby, the ashes just look pretty on your eyes.
 C             D                    C        D
Pretty on your eyes, pretty on your eyes


Bridge:

Em                    C
Dry your wings in the sun
                 D             G   D
You have only begun to understand
Em                     C               D
When it's time to move on there is no one
              G   D
To hold your hand.
        Em      C      Em    D
So let go, let go, let go.  Oo-OOo OO!!


Verse 3:

 Em                 Bm      C                     D
Here the night is fine. The stars are sparks of steel
  Em              Bm         C
Chiseled in the mines of twilight
     D                   Em             Bm         C
You tell me something real, say "Don't try, don't try
 D           Em Bm     C         D
Just remember how,    remember, remember."


Chorus:

C         D      G     D       C
Now you only dream in peaceful blue
         D               Em         D     C
And the morning doesn't even scare you anymore
           D                 Em               D        C
You are a phoenix with your feathers still a little wet
           Em              D             C
Baby, the ashes just look pretty on your eyes.
 C             D                    C        D
Pretty on your eyes, pretty on your eyes
