Chords

[Verse 1]
  E                             A
I am born in the reeds, I'm an idea of magnitude

  E                           B7
Giving birth to itself ad infinitum

  C#m                            A
I am Jefferson's torch in a bright, stellar majesty
[Chorus]
   E                   B                A
Oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning

   C#m                  B                 A                E

[Verse 2]
      E                          A
We were measured in the dark by timetabled tragedy

   E                             B
There's a real turn of age in disaster

Now I'm firing a well our politicians gave to ruin
[Chorus]

'Till I'm burning, oh I'm burning, yes I'm burning

   A                                               E
River run run run run run run run river through me

    A
Through the mud mud mud mud mud

Let me feel, let me feel, let me feel you

Now come out from your cups, find your love in the doorways

        E                             B
Have a care to fill the vessel of your heart

        C#m
Hold me tight through the storms

           A
And the winds of revolution
[Chorus]
          E              B                  A
And always burning, oh he's burning, oh he's burning

Oh he's burning, yes he's burning, oh he's burning

Oh he's burning, yes he's burning, oh he's burning for thee
