The Phoenix

	  		


Em 
Put on your war paint 

Em 
You are a brick tied to me that's dragging me down 
Em 
Strike a match and I'll burn you to the ground 
Em 
We are the jack-o-lanterns in July 
Setting fire to the sky 
Em 
Here, here comes this rising tide 
So come on 

Em 
Put on your war paint 

Em 
Cross walks and crossed hearts and hope-to-dies 
Silver clouds with grey linings 

Em                                     G       D 
So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked 
Em                             G      D 
One maniac at a time we will take it back 
Em                                     G          D  
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to  
Em                   G                         D D 
Start so dance along to the beat of your heart 

          Em 
Hey young blood 
           C 
Doesn't it feel 
         Db/C            C    
Like our time is running out 
   D     Em                  C 
I'm gonna change you like a remix 
           Db/C              C      
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix 
     D             Em          C 
You're wearing our vintage misery 
                 Db/C                    C 
No, I think it looked a little better on me 
   D      Em                   C 
I'm gonna change you like a remix 
           Db/C                 C (once) 
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix 

Em 
Bring home the boys and scrap scrap metal the tanks 
Em 
Get hitched and make a career out of robbing banks 
Em 
Because the world is just a teller and 
We are wearing black masks 
Em 
"You broke our spirit," says the note we pass 

Em                                     G       D 
So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked 
Em                             G      D 
One maniac at a time we will take it back 
Em                                     G          D
