Tom : G
D5 E5 C
Would you rather fight
D5 E5 G
Or curl up in the pain?
D5 E5 C
It's a cynic's knife
C
If you fantasize
D5 E5 G
And change nothing at all
D5 E5 C
You could really fight
D5 E5 G
The ones who walked away
D5 E5 C
But you're paralyzed
C
You don't even try
D5 E5 G
To change nothing at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G C
Some say they won't follow if you go
D
(Don't let them stop you, don't need them)
Em G C D
But every revolution starts alone
[Chorus]
D Em
Burn it down 'cause we outgrew this house
C G
Unafraid but we lost our light
D Em
Burn it down, don't feel the fallout
C
What does it take just to break away?
D Em
If you want, you can find a way out
C G
Don't gotta die in the bed you made
[Próxima Parte]
D Em
Burn it down right here, right now
Cadd9
What does it take just to break away?
[Verse 2]
N.C.
Deep end
C
Feel it creeping in
D5 E5
But you can't swim
G D5 E5
Lеt the water in your lungs all in
C D5 E5 G
You cross your fingers but you losе it every time
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D Em
Burn it down right here, right now
Cadd9 E5 C5 G5 D5 C5
What does it take just to break away?
G5 D5 A5 E5 C5 G5 D5 C5 G5 D5 A5
What does it take just to break away?
[Bridge 2x]
E5 C5 G5 D5
Fight back, you might be undefeated
C5 G5 D5 A5 E5
Don't crash, you've been in it too long
C5 G5 D5 C5 G5 D5 A5
Too bad, your body's brave enough to lose and let it die
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D Em
Burn it down right here, right now
Cadd9
What does it take just to break away?
[Outro]
D Em
Fight back, you might be undefeated
C G
Don't crash, you've been in it too long (What does it take just to break away?)
D Em Cadd9
Too bad, your body's brave enough to lose and let it die
