Intro: Em | Em | Em | Em

Em                      D#+
Give me the flammable life.
              G/D             C#m75-
I’m cold as a match, ready to strike.
   Cmaj Em A9
So here I go.

Em                    D#+
Here lies a city on fire.
         G/D                  C#m75-
Singing along, the arsonist choir.
    Cmaj Em A9  E5 F#5 G5 G5/D A/C#
Now here I go.

A/C#       A            E5 F#5 G5 G5/D A/C#
It started with a spark
             A
And burned into the dark.
    C    Em A
Now here I go.

Em                 D#+
There is a river I found,
         G/D             C#m75-
Into the wild, under the ground.
   Cmaj Em A9  E5 F#5 G5 G5/D A/C#
So here I go.

A/C#     A            E5 F#5 G5 G5/D A/C#
A button on a string,
            A
And I heard everything.
    C    Em A
Now here I go. Well…

Instrumental: D5 E5 D5 E5 F#5 G5 G5/D  } ×4

    D5  E5 D5 E5    F#5 G5 G5/D
Oh, sweet ignition, be my fuse.
    D5 E5   D5 E5       F#5  G5 G5/D
You have no choice; you have to choose.
D5 E5   D5 E5   F#5 G5 G5/D
Bid farewell to yesterday.
D5 E5   D5 E5    F#5 G5 G5/D  C Em
Say goodbye; I’m on my way.

A                  C  Em
But in the end we all
A
Come from what’s come before.
   C    Em A
So here I go. Well…

D5 E5   D5 E5    F#5 G5 G5/D

  D5 E5   D5 E5    F#5 G5 G5/D
I threw it all away because
  D5 E5  D5 E5   F#5 G5 G5/D
I had to be what never was.
D5 E5   D5 E5   F#5 G5  G5/D
Been so hungry, I could lie.
    D5 E5   D5 E5   F#5  G5   G5/D
You took my word; I took your wine

    D5 E5    D5 E5  F#5 G5 G5/D
And held you in my bloody hand.
      D5 E5   D5 E5     F#5 G5 G5/D
These rattled bones and rubber bands,
D5 E5      D5 E5     F#5 G5 G5/D
Washed them in the muddy water.
D5 E5         D5 E5    F#5   G5   G5/D
Looking for a dime and found a quarter.

       D5 E5       D5 E5 F#5    G5 G5/D
   But you can’t make me change my name.
          D5 E5   D5 E  F#5    G5 G5/D
   You’ll never make me change my name.
   D5 E5  D5 E5      F#5   G5   G5/D
   Pay no mind; now, ain’t that something!
   D5   E5  D5 E5 F#5  G5   G5/D
   Fuck it all! I came from nothing!

You are my fuse.
