Intro: G5 - C5 - E5 - C5 -


Verse 1:
              G5   C5
She says it's cold
And she says the 
 E5            C5
sky's about to fall
           G5    C5
How do you know?
Well she says the 
E5               C5
writing's on the wall
     G5
Everything I made 
  C5
I somehow broke
      E5
Every word I say
  C5
I think I stole
          G5    C5
I can't explain
      E5
But I won't give 
       C5
up the ghost


Refrain:
    C5
She looks like an angel
B5              D5
Talks like it's war


Chorus 1:
    G5
And this whole 
A5           C5  D5
world's gone crazy
G5           A5     C5 D5
God's got a little lazy
      E5          D5
We're raising our white flags 
    C5
and holding our breath
       E5      D5   C5  G5 A5
But no retreat and no sur-rendering


Interlude: G5 - C5 - E5 - C5 -


Verse 2:
              G5   C5
She says it's late
And come on, we're 
E5             C5
headed for the sun
       G5       C5
I said now wait
     E5              C5
This battle's just begun
      G5
Every line I crossed 
    C5
has come undone
     E5
Everything I know 
   C5
is somehow wrong
          G5   C5
I can't escape
            E5
And there's nowhere 
        C5
left to run


(Repeat Refrain and Chorus 1)


Bridge: while doing Guitar Solo
E5             C5
  I'm going to fall 
         B5                D5
with you come on (with you)
E5             C5
  I'm going to fall with you
I'll break down 
      B5         D5  Eb5
these walls with you


Interlude: G5 - C5 - E5 - C5 -


Chorus 2:
    G5
And this whole 
A5           C5  D5
world's gone crazy
G5           A5     C5 D5
God's got a little lazy
      E5          D5
We're raising our white flags 
    C5
and holding our breath
         E5          D5
Oh we're trading out black
           C5
hearts for angels instead
       E5      D5   C5  G5 A5   G5 (hold)
But no retreat and no sur-rendering
