E5
[Verse 1]
E5
Behind a velvet rope, we hide in plain sight
E5
We're dressed in black smoke, and have our hands tied
E5
She says, "I see you babe," but we are both blind
E5 C#5
Our bodies yearning for what we cannot find
E5 C#5
The end is beginning and I'm falling
B5
So take it or leave it cause I'm all in
[Chorus]
A5 E5 C#5 B5
We're too young to die today, to die today
A5 E5 C#5 B5
But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away
A5 E5 C#5
Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire
B5
All in the name of love
A5 E5 C#5 B5 E5
We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
[Verse 2]
E5
You've been on your knees praying for so long
E5
When you close your eyes the words do not come
C#5 E5
The end is beginning and you're falling
C#5 B5
So take it or leave it cause I'm all in
[Chorus]
A5 E5 C#5 B5
We're too young to die today, to die today
A5 E5 C#5 B5
But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away
A5 E5 C#5
Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire
B5
All in the name of love
A5 E5 C#5 B5
We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
[Bridge]
F#5 A5
C#5 B5 F#5 A5
If you can show me love, yeah I can lift you up
C#5 B5 F#5
And if you call my name, then I can see again
A5 C#5
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the things we've done
B5 F#5
We're falling, we're falling from a burning Sun
A5 C#5
We flew too high looking for love
B5
We knew the skies, but not well enough
[Chorus]
A5 E5 C#5 B5
We're too young to die today, to die today
A5 E5 C#5 B5
But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away
A5 E5 C#5
Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire
B5
All in the name of love
A5 E5 C#5 B5
We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
[Outro]
E5
