Verse 1:
C majorC        G+G
I take flight on borrowed time
 A minorAm      E minorEm
I was once terrified of heights
 A minorAm       C majorC             G+G
I say a prayer, I look down and I'm ready to die
C majorC       G+G
If you cross over tonight
  A minorAm       E minorEm
You see beyond the darkest sky
  A minorAm         C majorC          G+G
You taste the blood as something wild and alive

Refrain:
     FF       C majorC
You might light up in a flash
        C majorC   A minorAm
You won't hold onto a flame
    FF       G+G         C majorC      A minorAm
It's a squalid way to live but it's the rules of the game
     FF              C5C5
It ain't your fault it's just a shame
    G5G5   C majorC
To fall without aim


Interlude:

  G+G | A minorAm  C majorC | A minorAm  C majorC |  G+G  |


Verse 2:
C majorC        G+G
I walk down east seventh street
 A minorAm        C majorC
A augmentedA wistful, wild de-pravity
 A minorAm      C majorC             C majorC
Iconoclastic, black and white, dusty and  sweet
 C majorC        G+G
I tell this story every time
   A minorAm         C majorC
Real love don't follow a straight line
  A minorAm          C majorC           G+G
It breaks your neck, it builds you a delicate  shrine

Refrain:
     FF         G+G
You might mourn all that you wasted
      C majorC      A minorAm
That's just part of the haul
     FF        G+G          C majorC      A minorAm
Tangling up all your good fortune, bearing the heart of the fall
     FF       F5F5
You won't break it after all


Chorus:
    C majorC      G+G
Look at us, man and bride
     D MajorD
And a grinding sound
     C majorC     G+G  D MajorD
Faithful to a life underground
       C majorC    G+G          D MajorD
And when the picture fades the years will make us calm
      C majorC      G+G   D MajorD
I'll sing a song at your fune - ral
    C majorC    G+G     D MajorD
Laid in the Mississippi gu - lf
       C majorC   G+G     D MajorD
Or back home at Waxahatchee creek
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD
You know you got a friend in me
    C majorC     G+G      D MajorD
I'm an angler married to the sea
