Verse 1:
       D
As the shadows grow
We dive into
    B
The tide of yesterday
         F#m
When the colours bloom

To bleed away
   D                      B
We hide inside the frames
                      F#m
In resistance of understanding
  E      F#
Today we die

Verse 2:
          D         
While the story of us is written on
      B
We're reading ancient tales
        F#m
And the more you think to know 'bout me
    D                 B
The more I disappear
                       F#m
Acting for the perfect picture
             E                 F#    F#m
Go ahead and shoot I'm already dead

Chorus:
F                      Cm
Follow the traces that lead to nowhere
 G#m
Away from the dirt
 Bbm                 F
Away from here (From you)
F                    Cm
Chasing the image of Paradise Bay
     G#m
Come close to the dream
    Bm        D/F# B
And lose reality 
     F#m 
With me

Verse 3:
           D
With every name you give me I illuminate
    B
And slowly turn to air
        F#m
And any time I try To hold you tight
    D                   B
You slip away like sand
                        F#m
Applauding the sleeping audience
   E         F#    F#m
Hurray we're gone

Chorus

D/F# B F#m
    D/F#
The Hollywood stars And Broadway queens
    B
The jackpot hits In heroin dreams
    F#m
The vast ideas Of genius minds
    D/F#
The who is who Of Olympus' tribe
  B
I wrap my head in crimson skies
   F#m
We drink champagne to the grace of mine
    D/F#
You suit me well I suit you fine
      B
Let's fuse to a sun in a meltdown hellfire
