Song: Burning in the Skies
Album: A Thousand Suns
[Intro]
Am   C   G   D   x2
[Verse]
Am                                    C
 I use the dead wood to make the fire rise
G                                      D
 The blood of innocence burning in the skies
Am                                      C
 I filled my cup with the rising of the sea
G                                   D
 And poured it out in an ocean of debris
F   D
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
    G               Am
I'm swimming in the smoke
                  G
Of bridges I have burned
   E          F
So don't apologize
           C              G
I'm losing what I don't deserve
E               Am    C   G   D
What I don't deserve
[Verse]
Am                                           C
 We held our breath when the clouds began to form
G                                        D
 But you were lost in the beating of the storm
Am                                   C
 But in the end we were meant to be apart
G                                  D
 In separate chambers of the human heart
F   D
No, oh
[Chorus]
    G               Am
I'm swimming in the smoke
                  G
Of bridges I have burned
   E          F
So don't apologize
           C              G
I'm losing what I don't deserve
     E                Am
It's in the blackened bones
                  G
Of bridges I have burned
   E          F
So don't apologize
           C              G
I'm losing what I don't deserve
E               Am
What I don't deserve
[Solo]
(Am)  C   G   D
 Am   C   G   D   x2
 F        D
[Chorus]
    G               Am
I'm swimming in the smoke
                  G
Of bridges I have burned
   E          F
So don't apologize
           C              G
I'm losing what I don't deserve
    E              Am
The blame is mine alone
                   G
For bridges I have burned
   E          F
So don't apologize
           C              G
I'm losing what I don't deserve
E              Am     G
What I don't deserve
E              F        C     G
What I don't deserve, woah, woah
E              Am
What I don't deserve
[Outro]
Am                                    C
 I use the dead wood to make the fire rise
G                                      D
 The blood of innocence burning in the skies
