Version 1
            [Intro]
C Cmaj7 Am C G F x2

[Verse 1]
C          C
  As if on cue
                    Am
They lit a firework
    C
The sky reeled back
                  F
And I ran fast to get to you
            C
I think you knew
                 Am
Before the war began
     C                                           F
What loving to run towards something can do to a man

C
Fall over the edge
Learn to live while falling
Am
Every laugh is a path worth following
         C
When you put it into words
It's comfortingly bland
F
There's so little left to understand

           C
When we're strung up, hanging from the knots we've allowed
   Am
We call up our angels to cut us down
    C
"If you could be proud of anything you've done
              F
What would it be?"
                                         C
Then they disappear and we are up in the clouds

Cmaj7 Am C G F C

[Chorus]
                               Am
I feel the tension shock right through my body
           C
I am wide awake
        F
Shake a laugh from me

[Verse 2]
              C
I thought one day
                     Am
I thought I'd find a hole
      C
In my own backyard
               F
I'd never seen before
          C
Follow it down
                Am
Underneath that fence
C
Come back up on the other side
     F
Live another life

C
Break down the door, it's yours for the taking
  Am
I held it back until you stopped asking
   C
My eyes are blurred but the clock is ticking
    F
I'm coming up short in a life worth nothing

       C
I hear women in my head with ordinary names

(Coming up short in a life worth nothing) (I'm coming up short in a life worth nothing)
     Am
That ring like magic through some malfunction in my brain
     C
Your hands were warm, though you came in from the cold
  F
I took one and held it
                        G
And suddenly started to shake

[Bridge]
      C
Shake
      Am
Shake
      C
Shake
G F Em Dm
Shake

[Chorus]
C
  I feel it break
           Am                           C
I feel the weight of anger, pain and sorrow
              F
Breaking over me
C
  The flags are raised
             Am                      C
We walk with no goodbyes and no tomorrows
             F
This is destiny

[Outro]
C
Memories of the best regrets
  Am                           C
I play my song in every single rest
                        F
Every note of the symphony
C
Mend the fence with the best of grace
     Am                                C
It's pleasantries to the bottom of the page
       F
I'm sorry
