Intro (Listen to the original song for the rythm):

Em Em D D C C

Em Em Bm Bm C C

First Verse:

Em Em D D C C
There's a lightning storm each and every night
Em Em Bm Bm C C
Crashing inside you like motorbikes
Em Em D D C C
We toss and turn, sleep so loud
Em Em
Grind the teeth in our
Bm Bm C C Em Em
Our empty mouths (are empty...)

Second Verse:

Em Em D D C C
There's a forest fire burning bright
Em Em Bm Bm C C
Spreading quickly towards our last rites
Em Em D D C C
Nowhere to run, pointless to hide
Em Em Bm Bm C C
Just lay there and scream, pretending to try
Em Em
Pretending...

Chorus:

C C Em Em
Intending to burn, pretending to fight it
D D C C Em Em
Everyone learns faster on fire
D D C C Em Em
Things took a turn, lost all desire
D D C C D D
You live and you burn
C C Em Em
You live and you burn

Third Verse:
Em Em D D C C
This impending doom is left deep inside
Em Em Bm Bm C C
And it's haunting you each and every night
Em Em D D C C
Like starving wolves drowning sheep
Em Em Bm Bm C C
We close our eyes, pretending to sleep
Em Em
Descending...

Chorus:

C C Em Em
Intending to burn, pretending to fight it
D D C C Em Em
Everyone learns faster on fire
D D C C Em Em
Things took a turn, lost all desire
D D C C D D
You live and you burn
C C
You live and...

Bridge:

Em7 Em7 G G Cadd9 Cadd9
Like hell we are anxiously waiting
Em7 Em7 G G Cadd9 Cadd9
Like hell burning silently strong
Em7 Em7 G G Cadd9 Cadd9 D D
Somehow we fell down by the wayside
Cadd9 Cadd9 D D
And somehow this hell is home

Chorus:

C C Em Em
As we burn, pretending to fight it
D D C C Em Em
Everyone learns faster on fire
D D C C Em Em
Things took a turn, lost all desire
D D C C D D
You live and you burn
C C
You live and...

Bridge:

Em7 Em7 G G Cadd9 Cadd9
Like hell we are anxiously waiting
Em7 Em7 G G Cadd9 Cadd9
Like hell burning silently strong
Em7 Em7 G G Cadd9 Cadd9 D D
Somehow we fell down by the wayside
Cadd9 Cadd9 D D
And somehow this hell is home
C C D D Em Em
Right now, this hell is my home
