Intro:
CF (x4)
CF
The blood runs down my legs
AmGF
I'm soaked through and through but I'm indifferent
CF
and there's thunder in my head
AmGF
I can't hear a thing but it makes no difference.
EbFC
Because now the empire will fall
EbFC
and we'll be blamed for it all
and I wouldn't have it any other way
Interlude:
CFAmGFG (x2) CF
The house went up in flames
AmGF
and I sat and watched you from a distance
CF
the wood creek didn't complain
AmGF
and the walls folded in and took her with them
EbFC
And now the empire will fall
EbFC
and we'll be blamed for it all
and I wouldn't have it any other way
Interlude:
CFAmGFG (x2) CE
Lost along the way
AmGF
quiet nights grassy roads abandoned homes
GC
and the smell of bones
E
but I don't mind
AmGF
as long as you are along for the ride
GC
because you feel like home
F
you feel like home
GC
and you feel like home
F
cause you feel like home
GC
cause you feel like home
E
abandoned sky
AmGF
a flock of birds some scattered clouds and not a wind
GCE
and the sounds of light, down in these fields
AmGF
we don't have much beyond the clothes on our backs
GC
but it feels like home
F
but it feels like home
GC
but it feels like home
F
and it feels like home
GC
and it feels like
FGC
all the drafts another train has crashed the smoke runs from its sides
FGAm
and I just pushed the remains aside and the piles a mile high
GFCAm

GFC
and if i fall to pieces i would like to choose where i would land
