My Chemical Romance – The Foundations Of Decay (Guitar)

C#m      A        B             G#m  A
See the man who stands upon the hill

             F#m             G#7
He dreams of all the battles won

     C#m       A          B           G#m  A
But fate had left it's scars upon his face

              F#m            G#7
From all the damage they had done

        A          B
And so time, with age

    G#m      C#m
He turns the page

 B        A
Let the flesh

                   G#7
Submit itself to gravity

          A                     B
Let our bodies lay, while our hearts will stay

         G#m               C#m         B  A
Let our blood invade, if I die in pain

                                        B
Now, if your convictions were just a passing faith

          G#7                          C#m     B
May your ashes feed the river in the morning rays

A                              F#m               G#7       C#m
  And as the vermin crawls, we lay in the foundations of decay

C#m      A         B             G#m  A
He was there, the day the towers fell

            F#m             G#7
And so he wandered down the road

    C#m       A         B            G#m
And we would all build towers of our own

A          F#m               G#7
  Only to watch the roots corrode

          A        B
But it's much too late

      G#m     C#m
You're in the race

B         A
So will press

                          G#7
And press 'till you can't take it anymore

          A                     B
Let our bodies lay, while our hearts will stay

         G#m               C#m         B  A
Let our blood invade, if I die in pain

                              B
And, if by his own had, his spirit flies

          G#7                   C#m     B
Take his body as a relic, to be canonized

A           F#m               G#7                               C#m
Now, and he will get to die a saint, but she will alway be the w***e

C#m
   A-gainst faith (Anti-hero)

C#m
   A-gainst all life (As if it must be pure)

C#m
   A-gainst change (We wander through the ruins)

C#m
   We are free (The guiltiness is yours)

    G#m            C#m  B
You must fix your heart

A      B                 G#7            C#m  B
  And you must build an alter where it swells

           A
When the storm it gains

         B
And the sky it rains

        G#m
Let it flood, let it flood

       C#m    B
Let it wash away

A                                 B
  And as we stumble through your last crusade

           G#m                           C#m    B
Will you welcome your extiction in the morning rays

A                              G#7
  And as the swarming calls we lay in the foundation...

        C#m               F#m  G#7
Yes, it com-forts me much more

        C#m               F#m  G#7
Yes, it com-forts me much more

   G#7                        C#m
To lay in the foundations of decay

A  B    A  B   A  B     C#m
    Get!    Up!    Coward...
