Chords

[Intro] C/E F G C x2 [Verse 1]
  C/E     F        G              C
I read my horoscope and abandoned all my hope

C/E       F              G       Am
“This was all a joke, we thought you knew”

     C/E   F       G        D/A
Pull heavy blankets over my head

    C/E      F  G           C
And make the bed a swimming pool
[Verse 2]
     C/E      F            G          C
Then tie some cinder blocks around my ankles

    C/E       F         G      Am
And apply the labels of all my fears

   C/E     F       G             D/A
My worst intentions, the selfish engines

     C/E       F      G             C
That drive the pistons and turn the gears
[Chorus]
    F       C        F    C
And light a fire and burn away

F       Am            F     C
All the efforts of my glory days

   F     C        F       C
As my reflection, painted blue

       F      Am          F            C
Says, “I will always be a part of you”
[Interlude] C/E F G C x2 [Verse 3]
  C/E      F               G        C
I wrote my number down and then got turned around

  C/E        F             G         Am
I parked the car, but then forgot my place

  C/E          F      G           D/A     C/E
I wandered the desert, despite my efforts

F             G            C
Wound up like Moses at the gates
[Chorus]
    F       C        F    C
And light a fire and burn away

F       Am            F     C
All the efforts of my glory days

   F     C        F       C
As my reflection, painted blue

              Am          F            C
Says, “I will always be a part of you”
[Interlude] C/E F G C x2 C/E F G D C/E F G C [Verse 4]
  C/E    F         G             C
I wanted desperately something I couldn’t see

  C/E      F             G           Am
A blinding light, always just out of reach

    C/E     F       G             D/A   C/E
The ancient specter, the blind director

F   G             C
The sirens on the beach
[Chorus]
            C        F    C
And light a fire and burn away

F       Am            F     C
All the efforts of my glory days

   F     C        F       C
As my reflection, painted blue

              Am          F            C
Says, “I will always be a part of you”
[Outro]
    F     C       F    C    G/B
So heaven help me if I stay

       Am           F       C
Heaven help me if I go away

  G/B  Am      F      C
I’ve forgotten how to pray

           G       F        Fm  Gsus4/D  C
But heaven help me anyway
