Intro: Abm E (x2)

Verse 1:
      Abm
Every hour is a season
      E
Every minute lasts a day
      Abm
So I sit here picking stitches
       E
I find comfort in decay
       F#              E
How I long to fill my lungs

Chorus (no words):

Abm E B F# (x2)

Verse 2:
                        Abm
So tell me how does it feel to,
  E
Breathe air cold and clean
        Abm                                  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:

         Abm                    E            B
Well my wings were clipped and even if they weren't
               F#
(Even if they weren't)
             Abm               E               B
I've not the guts to fly and leave behind the Earth
                  F#
(Leave behind the Earth)
            Abm          E
There's no poetry in my soul,
        B                 F#
Just a list of lies I've told,
       Abm                 E            B   F#
And I don't know how much longer I can hold on.

Solo bridge: G#m E G#m F# E G#m E F# (not sure about that, I just leaned on the bass tab from UG)

Abm                  E
Poetry, in my soul. List of lies, that I've told... (x2)

Chorus (two times, second time quietly, almost whispering):

         Abm                    E            B
Well my wings were clipped and even if they weren't
               F#
(Even if they weren't)
             Abm               E               B
I've not the guts to fly and leave behind the Earth
                  F#
(Leave behind the Earth)
            Abm          E
There's no poetry in my soul,
        B                 F#
Just a list of lies I've told,
       Abm                 E            B   F#
And I don't know how much longer I can hold on.
