Intro:  C   F   C   F   Am   Dm  F  
It’s the common reaCctor
it’s the long way oFut
it’s the stream of a moCtion blur
that swirls around till you Fdrown
but I couldn’t put it dAmown
no i couldn’t put it dDmown
no i couldn’t put Fit down
it’s the colorless picCture
in a heart shaped fFrame
the silhouette of a dCoe eyed girl
who at one point had a nFame
but I couldn’t put it dAmown
no I couldn’t put it dDmown
no I couldn’t put it dFown
let’s brCeak the window panes
and separate the waFlls from all the nails
cos maybe if we’re lEmoud we’ll stay alive
while everybody wFants to join the fight
but now it’s tCoo late
Break:  F   Em  F  
brush away all the memCories
keep the cries curFbside
i’ll be ashing on the imaCges
that have all been caught inFside
but i couldn’t put it Amdown
no i couldn’t put it dDmown
no i couldn’t put it dFown
let’s bCreak the window panes
and separate the wFalls from all the nails
cos maybe if we’re lEmoud we’ll stay alive
while everybody waFnts to join the fight
cut even if we barCricade the door and seal it with the
blFood found on the floor
we’re always going to cEmross the finish line
while everybody wFants to run and hide
but now it’s Ctoo late
Interlude:  Am   F   C   Am   F   C   Am   F   C   Am   A#...What the hell goes here : D(Fades to  Abig 
you know what I mean, sorry!)

C F C F Am Dm F

Intro:

It’s the common reactor

it’s the long way out

it’s the stream of a motion blur

that swirls around till you drown

but I couldn’t put it down

no i couldn’t put it down

it’s the colorless picture

in a heart shaped frame

the silhouette of a doe eyed girl

who at one point had a name

but I couldn’t put it down

no I couldn’t put it down

let’s break the window panes

and separate the walls from all the nails

cos maybe if we’re loud we’ll stay alive

while everybody wants to join the fight

but now it’s too late

F Em F

Break:

brush away all the memories

keep the cries curbside

i’ll be ashing on the images

that have all been caught inside

but i couldn’t put it down

no i couldn’t put it down

let’s break the window panes

and separate the walls from all the nails

cos maybe if we’re loud we’ll stay alive

while everybody wants to join the fight

cut even if we barricade the door and seal it with the

blood found on the floor

we’re always going to cross the finish line

while everybody wants to run and hide

but now it’s too late

Am F C Am F C Am F C Am A# D A

Interlude: ...What the hell goes here : (Fades to big

you know what I mean, sorry!)

let’s break the window panes

and separate the walls from all the nails

cos maybe if we’re loud we’ll stay alive

while everybody wants to join the fight

cut even if we barricade the door and seal it with the

blood found on the floor

we’re always going to cross the finish line

while everybody wants to run and hide

but now it’s too late
