[Intro]
Bm D A A
Bm D A A
[Verse]
Bm D
Leave the pictures in the frames on the walls
A
Leave the ghost of you and me in the halls
Bm D A
Leave the TV on in the livin’ room
Ah ah ah ah
Bm D
Let the memories disappear in the smoke
A
Deep breath, let ’em go even if I choke
Bm D A
I know I’ll be breathin’ easy soon
[Chorus]
Bm D A
I’m watchin’ the flaaaame do what it does
Bm D A
I’m watchin’ a naaaaame turn into dust
Bm D
I’m pourin’ gasoline on a king-size mattress
A
Light it up with some dive bar matches
Bm A D
As hot as it is right now-o-o-o-ow
G
You can’t rise from the ashes
D A
’Til you burn the house down
[Verse]
Bm D
Looks good from the outside lookin’ in
A
Felt more like lyin’, no livin’ it
Bm7 D
Scared to make a move,
A
I’m scared to make a mess
Ah ah ah ah
Bm7 D
You can’t stitch up this kind of broken heart
A
Open eyes can’t go back into the dark
Bm7 D A
I can’t live a new life with the same address
[Chorus]
Bm7 D A
I’m watchin’ the flaaaame do what it does
Bm D A
I’m watchin’ a naaaaame turn into dust
Bm7 D
I’m pourin’ gasoline on a king-size mattress
A
Light it up with some dive bar matches
Bm A D
As hot as it is right now-o-o-o-ow
G
You can’t rise from the ashes
D Bm
’Til you burn the house down
[Post-Chorus]
D A
Until you burn the house dow-own
Bm7
Until you burn the house down
D A
Until you burn the house dow-own
[Break]
Bm7 Bm D
From the ceilin’ to the floor
A
From the back porch to the front door
Bm7 D
Little bit stronger, little bit older
A
No one tells you how to start over
[Chorus]
Bm D A
I’m watchin’ the flaaaame do what it does
Bm D A
I’m watchin’ a naaaaame turn into dust
Bm D
I’m pourin’ gasoline on a king-size mattress
A
Light it up with some dive bar matches
Bm A D
As hot as it is right now
G
You can’t rise from the ashes
D A
’Til you burn the house down
Ah ah ah
[Outro]
G
I can’t rise from the ashes
D
’Til I burn the house down
