Verse 1:
Em Em Am Am G G B B
Now is the climax to the story
Em Em Am Am G G B B
That gives the demons and angels purpose
Em Em Am Am G G B B
They fly around while we are walking
Em Em Am Am G G B B
And mold our emotions just to please them

Chorus:
C C D D Em Em
I am cold, can you hear?
G G D D C C
I will fly with no hope, no fear
D D Em Em
And the ground taunts my wings
G G D D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I sing

Em Em, Am Am, G G, B B

Verse: 2
Em Em
All we are is an isle of flightless birds
Am Am
We find our worth in giving birth and stuff
G G
We're lining our homes against winding roads
B B
And we think the going is tough
Em Em Am Am
We pick songs to sing, remind us of things that nobody cares about
G G B B
And honestly we're probably more suicidal than ever now
Em Em Am Am
If you decide to live by, what you think's wrong and what's right
G G
Believe me you'll begin to wish you were sleeping
B B
Your weeping will creep in your head and you'll cry
Em Em Am Am
But if we wake up every morning and decide what we believe
G G B B
We can take a part our very heart and the light will set us free

Chorus:
C C D D Em Em
I am cold, can you hear?
G G D D C C
I will fly with no hope, no fear
D D Em Em
And the ground taunts my wings
G G D D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I...

(One strum)
C C D D Em Em
I am cold, can you hear?
G G D D C C
I will fly with no hope, no fear
D D Em Em
And the ground taunts my wings
G G D D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I sing

Outro:
C C
How frustrating, and so degrading
His time, we're wasting
D D
As time will fly by and the sky will cry as light is fading
Em Em
And he is waiting, oh so patiently
G G D D
While we repeat the same routine as we will please comfortability
C C
Please don't think about why you can't sleep in the evening
D D
And please don't be afraid of what your soul is really thinking
Em Em
Your soul knows good and evil, your soul knows both sides
G G D D
And it's time you pick your battle, and I promise you this is mine
(I promise you)

# Continue the pattern of C C, D D, Em Em, G G D D

For the verses I do: d D u d u (accent on second down strum)
and in the choruses do the same thing but softer and no accent.
Hope this helps
