Verse 1:
Em
See the arsonist standing in the burning sun
Em
With the stars and the stripes and the Tommy Gun
  C
I wonder how long can he make this last
                              D                  Em
I wonder if he's smiling underneath that mask, I wonder

Verse 2:
Em
Setting fire to the hills and it's spreading 'round
Em
'Til the streets turn hotter than hell on the ground
  C
A fool with a fire and a poison pen
  Bm
A mob full of half a million angry men


Chorus:
           Em
Everything burns
               D G C
Everything burns
Em         D          G
One little spark to a flame
                  C           D
And now everything, everything
           Em
Everything burns


Verse 3:
Em
Hear the thunder in the halls when he walks this way
Em
See the lightning strike when they scream his name
  C
I wonder what it takes to make that kind of man
                                  D               Em
Who's holding up a match beside a kerosene can, I wonder


Verse 4:
Em
But the arsonist hasn't got a doubt in his mind
Em
He's a front page pyro, he's a sign of the times
        C
There's too many fired-up matchstick men
    Bm
And it's too late to walk it back again


Chorus:
           Em
Everything burns
               D G C
Everything burns
Em         D          G
One little spark to a flame
                   C            Am         D
And now everything burn, burn, burns, burns
           Em
Everything burns

See the arsonist burning in the setting sun

With the stars and the stripes, now the work is done

Smoke is ascending from the blackened plain

Ash and cinders are all that remain

Everything burns

Everything burns
