[Intro]
E Esus4 E
[Verse 1]
E
I loved you like a meteor
It cannot change its path
E
It's pealed by speed and fire
Just kamikaze ash
A
And like dust on dust we follow
No cradle for regard
E
No grave to bury sorrow in
And no arrows in our hearts
B
And yet, bleeding mild forgiveness
A
Confessions did not earn
E
But whispered to the witnesses
All waiting for their turn
[Chorus]
A
And I, -I, -I
B
Get tired of tired
C#m A
Awakened by the weight of the common human state
A B
And the metaphor: Blackbird on fire
C#m
On soft mahogany
A
Doesn't carry any key
E
Doesn't carry any key
E Esus4 E
[Verse 2]
E
Like a bead inside of a barrel
I'll be burned before I'm free
E
Like a universal soldier
I am my own worst enemy
A
And I have tamed the tide of failure
I have turned the looking glass
E
I have harvested the future
And I have paralyzed the past
B
But with one eye closed
A
I'm folding to a recent memory
