Dm           Bb
  How did we get here?

           F                C
We're cast away on a lonely shore

Dm                  Bb
  I can see in your eyes, dear

             F                 C
It's hard to take for a moment more
We've got to [Pre-Chorus]
Dm                        Bb
  Burn the ships, cut the ties

                      F
Send a flare into the night

                       Am
Say a prayer, turn the tide

                        Bb
Dry your tears and wave goodbye
[Chorus]
            F       Gm  Bb
Step into a new day

                        F        Gm       Bb
We can rise up from the dust and walk away

                      C       Dm  Bb
We can dance upon the heartache,  yeah

           C                Dm             Bb
So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships
And don't you look back [Instrumental]

Dm                Bb
  Don't let it arrest you

     F                  C
This fear, this fear of fallin' again

Dm                  Bb
  And if you need a refuge

                F              C
I will be right here until the end
Oh, it's time to [Pre-Chorus]
Dm                        Bb
  Burn the ships, cut the ties

                      F
Send a flare into the night

                       Am
Say a prayer, turn the tide

Dry your tears and wave goodbye

So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships
And don't you look back [Bridge]
Dm
   So long to shame

Bb
   Walk through the sorrow

F
 Out of the fire

C
  Into tomorrow

Dm
  So flush the pills

           Bb
Face the fear

                        F
Feel the weight disappear

                               Am
We're comin' clean, we're born again
Our hopeful lungs can breathe again
                   Bb
Oh, we can breathe again
