Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]I was just an acrobat,
high above the street
Pointing at the ground the empty
sky [Em]beneath [C]my [F]feet
The perfect fall,
[Dm]no o[G]ne could tell at all[Dm]
That [G]it was killing [C]me

[Verse 2]
[C]You were [G]just [C]an astronaut,
float[G]ing on [C]a spark
Tearing [G]up [C]the atmosphere,
burn[Em]ing down the d[F]ark
As you fell in[Dm],
[G]the heat against your ski[Dm]n
Till [G]it got too bright to see

[Interlude 1]
[C]

[Verse 3]
[Fm]Far [C]away, I hear the things
they [Eb]say about m[F]e
[Fm]Even [C]though they know you had
to [Eb]go without me

[Interlude 2]
[G][C]

[Verse 4]
[C]Now you are an architect,
setting up the sea
Everyone is with you and you're
all wait[Em]ing [C]for [F]me
You check the [Dm]net,
but [G]you haven't caught me [Dm]yet
[G]They're not quite done with me

[Interlude 3]
[C]

[Verse 5]
[C]Now I am an arsonist, seven miles high
Burning through the air I breathe,
thunder [Em]in t[F]he sky
My engine [Dm]sings as it
[G]melts this pair of [Dm]wings
That [G]only I can see

[Interlude 4]
[C]

[Verse 6]
[Fm]Touch the sun[C],
[Cm]my eyes wide o[Eb]pen un[F]believing
[Fm]Catch a [C]breath,
[Cm]the only one w[Eb]ho's left is leaving

[Interlude 5]
[G][C]

[Verse 7]
[C]Now I am an arsonist
