[Intro]
EmAmCAm
    (x4)
[Verse 1]
Em              Am            C
 Come waste your millions here
Am     Em     Am         C    Am
 Secretly she sneers
Em        Am            C
 Another corporate show
Am       Em         Am       C     Am
 A guilty conscience grows
      Em    Am      C
 And I'll feel
Am       Em          Am       C   Am
 A guilty conscience grow
      Em    Am      C
 And I'll feel
Am       Em          Am       C   Am
 A guilty conscience grow
[Chorus]
Am         Em            Am              Em
   She burns like the sun and I can't look away
Am         Em            Am        Em
   She'll burn our horizons make no mistake

Em            Am            C
 Come let the truth be shared
Am       Em    Am       C     Am
 No one ever dared
      Em        Am        C
 To break these endless lies
Am       Em    Am      C     Am
 Secretly she cries
[Chorus]
Am         Em            Am              Em
   She burns like the sun and I can't look away
Am          Em           Am        Em
   She'll burn our horizons make no mistake

[Outro]
Am        Em               Am               Em
   I'll hide from the world behind a broken frame
Am            Em      Am            Em
   And I'll run forever I can't face the shame                (x2)
