Intro:
G# E (x4)
Verse 1:
[C#m] I watched the [D#m]sun cut through your [A]bedroom[E]
[C#m] and make its [D#m]way across the [A]floor[E]
[C#m] I drifted [D#m]off to somewhere and [E]back to where you [A]are
The [C#m]lights are up, We [D#m]made it through the [A]bars[E]
Refrain
[A]Like a lost stra[E]y, I'm coming home again
[A]Try to fly straigh[E]t, But every now and then
[A]life becomes grey,[E] And it takes a lot of sin
[A]to feel alive on the [E]streets here at night
Verse 2:
[C#m] But nothing's [D#m]ever lost for[A]ever[E]
[C#m] I'll find my [D#m]way up off the [A]floor[E]
[C#m] But even [D#m]on my best days I'm [E]half of who you [A]are
I fked it [C#m]up, and I can't [D#m]wash away the [A]scars [E]
Refrain:
[A]Like a lost stra[E]y, I'm coming home again
[A]Try to fly straigh[E]t, But every now and then
[A]life becomes grey,[E] And it takes a lot of sin
[A]to feel alive on the [E]streets here at night
Chorus:
[A]I know I won't break, [E]but if you want to take
[B]all I have we'll [E]burn it up in effigy
[A]It's been a tail spin; [E]I'll reap the whirlwind
[B]all I have we'll [C#m]burn it up in effigy
[A]I'll play a new part; [E]I'll make a new start
[B]All I was we'll [E]burn it up in effigy
[A]It's such a long war, [E]but what I want more is [B]you and me
The [C#m]rest can burn in effigy
Break:
G# E (x4)
Repeat Chorus
End on E
