[Intro]
Em Em C D
[Verse 1]
And we were Embold
EmOver the world
We were Cflying through the satellitesD  
We had Emahold
Of the Emlightning strikes
When we Cshould have been afraid of heightsD  
And I was Emtrying just to get youEm  
And now I'm Cdying to forget youD  
Cause I Emknew I couldn't catch youEm  
So I Cleft the sky
And I Dfell behind
[Chorus]
EmWe were one in the same
Running like Cmoths to the flame
You'd hang on every Gword I'd say
But now they only Dricochet
EmWe were falling away
You left me with a Cbittersweet taste
But when I send my Gheart your way
It bounces off the Dwalls you made
RicochetEm  Em  
[Verse 2]
If I was Emwhole
I'd Emturn right now
I'd forCget it and just walk awayD  
Cause I've been Emtold
That I'm Emdragging it out
But I've been Cdying just to see your faceD  
And all I Emwanted was to say "goodbye"Em  
Into the Cfortress and you're stuck behindD  
And in the Emsilence now I realizeEm  
That Cafter all I Dbuilt the wall
[Chorus]
EmWe were one in the same
Running like Cmoths to the flame
You'd hang on every Gword I'd say
But now they only Dricochet

You left me with a Cbittersweet taste
But when I send my Gheart your way

They Cnever make me whole
They Gdon't, they don't know my heartD  
They don't know my heart
EmAll these broken souls
Each Cone more beautiful
They Gdon't, they don't know my heartD  
They don't know my heart
EmI'll send out my soul
To Cworlds more beautiful
But they Gwon't, they won't know my heartD  
It's the darkest part
[Chorus]
EmWe were one in the same
Running like Cmoths to the flame
You'd hang on every Gword I'd say
But now they only Dricochet

[Intro]

Em Em C D

[Verse 1]

And we were bold

Over the world

C D

We were flying through the satellites

We had ahold

Of the lightning strikes

C D

When we should have been afraid of heights

Em Em

And I was trying just to get you

C D

And now I'm dying to forget you

Em Em

Cause I knew I couldn't catch you

So I left the sky

And I fell behind

[Chorus]

We were one in the same

Running like moths to the flame

You'd hang on every word I'd say

But now they only ricochet

We were falling away

You left me with a bittersweet taste

But when I send my heart your way

It bounces off the walls you made

Em Em

Ricochet

[Verse 2]

If I was whole

I'd turn right now

C D

I'd forget it and just walk away

Cause I've been told

That I'm dragging it out

C D

But I've been dying just to see your face

Em Em

And all I wanted was to say "goodbye"

C D

Into the fortress and you're stuck behind

Em Em

And in the silence now I realize

C D

That after all I built the wall

[Chorus]

We were one in the same

Running like moths to the flame

You'd hang on every word I'd say

But now they only ricochet

We were falling away

You left me with a bittersweet taste

But when I send my heart your way

It bounces off the walls you made

Em C G D

Ricochet

[Bridge]

All these broken souls

They never make me whole

G D

They don't, they don't know my heart

They don't know my heart

All these broken souls

Each one more beautiful

G D

They don't, they don't know my heart

They don't know my heart

I'll send out my soul

To worlds more beautiful

G D

But they won't, they won't know my heart

It's the darkest part

[Chorus]

We were one in the same

Running like moths to the flame

You'd hang on every word I'd say

But now they only ricochet

We were falling away

You left me with a bittersweet taste

But when I send my heart your way

It bounces off the walls you made

Em Em Em Em Em Em Em Em

Ricochet

[Outro]
