Did you notice
  G
The marionette strings
Bm
Around your wrists
A               G            D
Or did you just forget that I exist


D                              Gbm
If the fire started burning too close
           G
Would you follow me
A        Bm
Follow me back home
      D                       Gbm
If the world started falling apart
         G           A       Bm
Would you promise to hold me close
            D               Gbm
And when the sun goes dark tonight
          G          A          Bm
Would you promise to stay and fight
  D
a typical day
        Gbm
Another dumpster fire
Bm               A
Breathing in the fumes
      G
Of the funeral pyre
   D
a cynical face
Gbm
On the fateful day
        Bm        A
That we all just watched it
G 
Blow away
D              Gbm
I would say -woah-
Gbm                    A
It’s the end of the world
   G
So won’t you stop and
 Bm
Watch it burn with me
 D
I would say -woah-
 Gbm
We’re all a little tired
 A
So won’t you
G                 Bm
Come back home to me
 D                               Gbm
If the fire started burning too close

Follow me back home
D                            Gbm
If the world started falling apart

Would you promise to hold me close
            D              Gbm
And when the sun goes dark tonight
           G         Bm
Would you promise to stay and fight
D
Those strings that bind you
Gbm
They’re pulling you away
G                 A
The mask you hide behind
 Bm
Started to be your face inside
 D
Those walls confine you
 Gbm
Shutting you away
G               A
Locking you in darkness
Bm
With a smiling face
D
  I would say -woah-
Gbm
   It’s the end of the world
G
So won’t you stop and
Bm
Watch it burn with me
D
 I would say -woah-
Gbm
 We’re all a little tired
G
So won’t you
 A        Bm
Stop and stand with me
D                               Gbm
If the fire started burning too close
 Bm
Would you follow me
A              G
Follow me back home

And when the sun goes dark tonight
          G                   Bm
Would you promise to stay and fight
D
A nuclear family with a
Bm
Ticking time bomb
A
And we know the end is
G              D
Not too long
 
My loves comes
   Bm
No strings attached
Gbm    A
You’re free to go
   G
My Pinocchio
 D                 Gbm
When the fire gets too close
       Bm       A        G
When the world starts to blow
          D
Come back home
             Gbm
When you’re tired of the road
      Bm         A        G
When the night gets too cold
             D   Gbm Bm A G
Come back home
          D
Come back home
              D             Gbm
And when the sun goes dark tonight
          A
Would you run away
   G                  GM 
Or would you stay and fight
