_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I am waiting on a mountaintop for the moment that the sky will strike.
My apologies are forever lost, soon to ashes in a flash of light.
Miles away from [Bb] me, all the things [Db] that I've found forever [F] in the waste of time.
My [Bb] intentions, like a sweet [Db] roof, only bring to [F] me a burning light.
_ Not just [Ab] _ [G] forever [Bb] _
_ inside, _ _ _ _ [F] I yield to [Ab] the [G] stars and [Eb] their flight. _ _ _ _
[F] Oh, it's a [Abm] good [G] time to [Db] teach my [C] dark heart [Eb] to _ [C] _ _
[Db] fail.
_ _ I _ _
[Eb] _ _ say, _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ I'm blown _
[Eb] _ _ away. _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ I am [Bb] waiting, like a single [Db] moon, lost forever [F] in a storm of light.
My intentions, [Bb] _ like a sweet [Db] roof, only bring to [F] me a burning light.
Not just [Ab] _ [G] forever _
[Eb] _ inside, _ _ _ _ [F] I yield to [Ab] the [G] _ _
[Eb] stars and their flight. _ _
[F] Oh, it's a [Ab] good [G] time to [Db] teach my [C] dark heart to _ fail.
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ Here [Eb] I _ _ am, _ _ [Db] falling, _ _ _ _ my _
[Eb] last step. _ _ _
[Db] I _ _ _ _ am [Eb] not _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ rising and _ [Bb] falling, [Eb] there's nothing to _ stop [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
me.
I am [Bb] ready _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [D] for the [F] world. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ Throw [Bb] me down, _
[Db] throw _ [F] me down, _ _ throw [Bb] me down.
It's been [Db] raining, throw [F] me down, and I will pay.
Throw [Bb] me down, for what's come to [Db] me.
Throw [F] me down, I will not be lied.
Throw [Bb] me down, I will not be [Db] weighed.
Throw [F] me down, on a mountaintop.
Throw [Bb] me down, on a [Dbm] mountaintop.
_ _ _ [F] _ _ It's been raining, like a [Ab] frozen [G] _
[Eb] moon, lost forever inside. _ _ _
[F] I yield to [Ab] the [G] stars [Eb] and their flight. _ _ _ _ _
[F] Oh, it's [Ab] a good time [Db] to teach my dark [Bb] heart to _ [C] _
[Db] fail. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ Here I am, falling, my _
[Eb] last step. _ _ _ _
[Db] I _ _ am _ _
[Eb] not _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ rising _ and falling, [Eb] there's nothing to stop _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ me.
