B     G#m     E     F#  

B                             G#m  
Preoccupied my temple lobe, this is getting serious.
    E                                     F#  
Oh no. I want to recognize the progress we have made
B                                G#m                                 E  
Hungover bodyless brown eyes, and her meticulous reprise
                                         F#  
From across the ocean, she was finally coming home

              B                                          G#m                                              F#  
She said, "Take me far away from this cold place, my cheeks are frosted with my tears.
                                    F#*  
And my hands need yours to hold."

B                                 G#m                                      E  
You're making poverty so fun, I wouldn't starve with anyone but you, you perfect actor
F#  
Burn with me forever aftеr
B                                                  G#m  
Eat the rich and lose our jobs, we'll movе down south till the arctic thaws
  E                                                  F#  
I pray that in the end, it hurts, cause that means we tried to make this work

B*  
"Stop!
     G#m  
Now breath, and hold it in. And let it out
E                                F#  
 Everything is gonna be fine"
B                                     G#m                             E  
Each time I tell you I'm terrified, I'll finally be wrong
                                                     F#  
And you'll stop eating, or sleeping, or end up too far gone

                  B                                            G#m                                          F#  
And I'll say "Honey, please remember that your loved more than you'll ever truly know.
                     F#7  
You've got your family and friends."
                B                                        G#m                                          F#  
She'll say "Baby, come September we'll be somewhere better for both you and me."
              F#  
We're both lying through our teeth

B                                          G#m  
Without foundries or the shops, without preachers or the cops,
        E                                              F#  
we&rsquo ll build a brave new life right here, without shame or unabashed fear.
B  
Free the slaves and burn the bridges.
G#                                            E                                  F#  
Ignite billionaires like witches. Occupy the country clubs, they'll never find us just because

    B                            G#m  
My head's in the clouds.
                                      E                          F#  
I liked it better when I was there on the ground
     B                          G#m                                            E                      F#  
Our heads in the clouds.    One day we'll find a place that we can call ours
E                                                              G#m                                      F#  
We'll come crawling back to Mom and Dad, we'll sell all items that we've ever had
                F#7  
And use the cash to get stoned
        E                                             G#m                                                F#  
We'll tear apart our neighborhoods, the trees will burn, and walls crumble to soot
                  F#*  
We'll make it beautiful for once

        B                                        G#m  
Green pastors dry up in the sun, Hekla won&rsquo t wait for everyone
    E                                         F#  
to migrate high into the stars or shut it like a mason jar
B  
Save the kids, and save the money
G#m  
Burn the flags to disband the army
E                                            F#  
The night the volcanos blew, I'm glad that I was sleeping next to you
