Magnificent piece of music...
Tuning: Standard
C#m, A (x2)
[Verse]
C#m
From the lake
A
Where I lost it all
C#m
Stacked on the stakes
A
Yet you blessed the fall
C#m
I guess that I knew I was warned
B
I left my words in the cold
A
The things that I built for myself
C#m
Castles are tumbling down
B
Surrender the heir, savour the crown
A
Here lies where I drown
[Pre-Chorus]
A
The first time that I sought for grace
B
But not the last lung I'd put to waste
[Chorus]
C#m B
I'm burning down the sta_____kes
A
Wash away, wash away
C#m B
I'm burning down the sta_____kes
A
Wash away, wash away
[Bridge]
C#m
Fumbling through this jaded book
B
The hearts I stole, the air I took
A
What love is this
C#m
And now the photograph is all that's left
B
To feed the wolves and empty chests
A
To break the best
[Pre-Chorus]
A
The first time that I sought for grace
B
But not the last lung I'd put to waste
[Chorus]
C#m B
I'm burning down the sta_____kes
A
Wash away, wash away
C#m B
I'm burning down the sta_____kes
A
Wash away, wash away
C#m B
I'm burning down the sta_____kes
A
Wash away, wash away
C#m B
I'm burning down the sta_____kes
A
Wash away, wash away
[Outro]
A
I never bled for a thousand lies
B
Just to stem the flow
A
I never wept over a thousand lives
B
Just to let this go
A
I never bled for a thousand lies
B
Just to stem the flow
A
I never wept over a thousand lives
B
Just to let this go
A B A B
Wash away, wash away, wash away, wash away...
