D D
Does it have to start with a broken heart
A A
Broken dreams and bleeding parts
Em Em
We were young and the world was clear
Bm Bm
Young ambition disappears
Em Em
I swore it would never come to this
D D
The average, the obvious
Em Em
How I'm still discontented down here
A A
I'm still discontented

D D A A
If we've only got one try
Em Em Bm Bm
If we've only got one life
D D A A
If time was never on our side
Em Em Bm Bm D D A A
Then before I die I want to burn out bright


D D
So a spark ignites in time and space
A A
Limping through this human race
Em Em
You bite and claw your way back home
Bm Bm
But you're running the wrong way
Em Em
The future is a question mark
D D
Of kerosene and electric sparks
Em Em
There's still fire in you yet
A A
Yeah there's still fire in you

D D A A
If we've only got one try
Em Em Bm Bm
If we've only got one life
D D A A
If time was never on our side
Em Em Bm Bm D D
Then before I die I want to burn out bright
A A
Bright

Em Em Bm Bm
I keep cleaning up the mess I've made
Em Em Bm Bm
I keep cleaning up the mess I've made
A A
I won't run away
Em Em Bm Bm
I can't sleep in the bed I've made
Em Em Bm Bm A A
I can't sleep in the bed I've made

D D A A
If we've only got one try
(We've only got one try)
Em Em Bm Bm
If we've only got one life
(We've only got one life)
D D A A
If time was never on our side
(Time was never on our side)
Em Em Bm Bm D D
Then before I die I want to burn out bright
