[Intro]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
[Verse]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Shadows settle on the place that you left.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
From the perfect start to the finish line.
[Chorus]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Setting fire to our insides for fun
G/B C Em
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
Gmaj7/D
The lovers that went wrong.
[Interlude]
(Bass plays a B on fourth chords)
Em Em C Gmaj7/D
Em Em C Gmaj7/D
[Verse]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
We are the reckless, we are the wild youth
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Chasing visions of our futures
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
One day we'll reveal the truth
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
That one will die before he gets there.
[Chorus]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
We're setting fire to our insides for fun.
G/B C Em
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home,
Gmaj7/D
It was a flood that wrecked this...
[Bridge]
(bass plays B under Gmaj7/D)
Em C Gmaj7/D
Em C Gmaj7/D
And you caused it,
Em C Gmaj7/D
And you caused it,
Em C Gmaj7/D
And you caused it,
[Verse]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette,
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget,
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
My eyes are damp from the words you left,
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
[Chorus]
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one,
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone.
G/B C Em Gmaj7/D
Setting fire to our insides for fun,
G/B C Em
To distract our hearts from ever missing them.
Gmaj7/D
But I'm forever missing him.
[Bridge]
(bass plays B under Gmaj7/D)
Em C Gmaj7/D
Em C Gmaj7/D
And you caused it,
Em C Gmaj7/D
And you caused it,
Em C Gmaj7/D Em
And you caused it
