Intro: G#m E (x2)
Verse 1:
G#m
Every hour is a season
E
Every minute lasts a day
G#m
So I sit here picking stitches
E
I find comfort in decay
F# E
How I long to fill my lungs
Chorus (no words):
G#m E B F# (x2)
Verse 2:
G#m
So tell me how does it feel to,
E
Breathe air cold and clean
G#m E
'Cause I've been living on my knees since I was seventeen
F# E
Thought I was safe beneath the smoke,
F# E
But even under cover I still choke
Chorus:
G#m E B
Well my wings were clipped and even if they weren't
F#
(Even if they weren't)
G#m E B
I've not the guts to fly and leave behind the Earth
F#
(Leave behind the Earth)
G#m E
There's no poetry in my soul,
B F#
Just a list of lies I've told,
G#m E B F#
And I don't know how much longer I can hold on.

G#m E B
Well my wings were clipped and even if they weren't

I've not the guts to fly and leave behind the Earth
F#
(Leave behind the Earth)
G#m E
There's no poetry in my soul,
B F#
Just a list of lies I've told,
G#m E B F#
And I don't know how much longer I can hold on.
