Riff:  Am   G   F   C   Dm   G   Am   Dm  G  
Listen to the song to get the strum pattern
Riff
Oh, I'm in a real bad state.
All loaded words and bad aim.
So we're free but tell me, do you miss the birdcage?
Just keep those lashes dry with tinted windows.
I've heard that road to hell in a limousine's alright.
            Am       C       F                  G   F(twice)
Just slow my chest, to a pace I can count with.
COh oh, oh oh wEme're terribly charmed but-
Amoh oh, oh oh GI was born a shade-off.
CPut a circle pEmit in my chest Amnow.
GI was born to burn out.
Repeat first part of riff: Am G F
Riff
"Oh now, now don't let death be a pacenote on life."
If I go mad, will you rope me down tight?
I ain't nomadic, just ain't found a bedroom I can call home yet.
But I could be your disaster.
AmTurn my ins Cout.
                               F                   G   F(twice)
With all the glory and style of Sinatra's "This Town".
COh oh, oh oh wEme're terribly charmed but-
Amoh oh, oh oh GI was born a shade-off.
CPut a circle pEmit in my chest Amnow.
GI was born to burn out.
FSo joke it up.
GI'm two to one aAmgainst my inner wreck most of the Ctime.
FI've been legendarilGy invisible
AmMy head's pitch black but on this stage toniCght it's torchlit.
            Am       C       F                  G   F(twice)
Just slow my chest, to a pace I can count with.
