The Phoenix
 By Fall Out Boy
(Chords by Gregg K)


Em
Put on your war paint

Em
You are a brick tied to me that's dragging me down
Em
Strike a match and I'll burn you to the ground
Em
We are the jack-o-lanterns in July
Setting fire to the sky
Em
Here, here comes this rising tide
So come on

Em
Put on your war paint

Em
Cross walks and crossed hearts and hope-to-dies
Silver clouds with grey linings

Em                                     G       D
So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked
Em                             G      D
One maniac at a time we will take it back
Em                                     G          D 
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to 
Em                   G                         D D
Start so dance along to the beat of your heart

          Em
Hey young blood
           C
Doesn't it feel
         [ch]Db/C[/ch]            C   
Like our time is running out
   D     Em                  C
I'm gonna change you like a remix
           [ch]Db/C[/ch]              C     
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
     D             Em          C
You're wearing our vintage misery
                 [ch]Db/C[/ch]                    C
No, I think it looked a little better on me
   D      Em                   C
I'm gonna change you like a remix
           [ch]Db/C[/ch]                 C (once)
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix

Em
Bring home the boys and scrap scrap metal the tanks
Em
Get hitched and make a career out of robbing banks
Em
Because the world is just a teller and
We are wearing black masks
Em
"You broke our spirit," says the note we pass

Em                                     G       D
So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked
Em                             G      D
One maniac at a time we will take it back
Em                                     G          D 
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to 
Em                   G                         D D
Start so dance along to the beat of your heart
