[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Lonely boy, where do we go
I'm stuck believing in the other side
stuck on my own
run fast, you're dreaming

[Verse 2]
no [D]place to hide
safety in things i'm dumb for thinking
'cuz a [Bm]piece of plastic
is nothing more [D]than a piece of plastic

[Verse 3]
[D]empty [Bm]streets [D]under my feet
how did we get [A]so [D]far?
from the general [Bm]beat
[D]across that great
held fast together in the dying [Bm]day
[D]oh you are swimming inside the magic hour
oh and [Em]when you wet your [F#]skin
you can suck up all you
need to [D]know[G]
you can suck up all you need to [D]know,
oh oh
[G]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]picture me, how will [D]you picture
me when [A]i am dead?
[Bm]all fast and free,
building a [D]fantasy with blocks [A]in my head
a [Bm]legacy, do these [D]things
disapate in the [A]years unread?
i've got [Em]a pain just like a knife,
[F#]and [Gdim]the time has lef[F#]t me

[Verse 5]
oh [D]i'm just trying to do my best
i'm not [G]afraid of life, i'm afraid of death
[D]build my love in the things i say
you've gotta [G]lift your face
to the breaking day

[Verse 6]
oh [D]i'm just trying to do my best
i'm not [G]afraid of life, i'm afraid of death
[D]build my love in the things i say
you've gotta [G]lift your face
to the breaking day

[Verse 7]
so i [D]ran and [Eb]i jumped and i flew till i [Cm]came
[Eb]to the center of a[D]n earth so cold
and the [Eb]wind picked me up and took
me straight to the belly of the [D]fears i hold
and [Eb]i ran and i ran and i [Cm]ran and i [Eb]ran

[Verse 8]
then [Cm]i came right back
threw my arms around you,
you [Eb]were dressed in black,
i'm so glad i found you
[Cm]for they burned my stuff,
objects all around me
memories [Eb]outlast things,
memories astound me
[Cm]to a fate like this
keep your body down to [Bb]the ground
to the soil that we [A]love so much
i always wanted to re[Bb]turn
return to the place where [A]i was born
i always wanted to re[G]turn
[A]and [G]i r[A]an and i ran and i ran

[Verse 9]
oh [D]i'm just trying to do my best
i'm not [G]afraid of life, i'm afraid of death
[D]build my love in the things i say
you've gotta [G]lift your face
to the breaking day

[Verse 10]
oh [D]i'm just trying to do my best
i'm not [G]afraid of life, i'm afraid of death
[D]build my love in [Em]the t[D]hings i say
you've gotta [G]lift your face
to the breaking day

[Verse 11]
because [Em]in time it leaves [F#]you,
it leaves you like [D]blood, red blood
it leaves you like [G]blood, red blood
it leaves you like [D]blood, red blood
it leaves you like [G]blood, red blood

[Outro 1]
[G][D]
