Vultures

Em

[Chorus]
     Em         G  F
Set fire to an icon
     Em
Set fire to the lie
     Em    G       F
Set fire, bid farewell
           Em
I'll be a martyr to myself
  C      Am
Where do I go
Em
  If every turn there's a vulture waiting
    C       Am
To pick at my bones
N.C.
And bury me alive?

Em   8x

[Verse]
               Em        F Em
My lungs are whitewashed
                           F         Em
A million thoughts on the tip of my tongue
   F          Em
I can't keep hiding
     F      Em         F Em
My guts in tight knots
          F            Em
Abandon who I've become
               F       Em
Or fight for what's inside me?

[Chorus]
     Em         G  F
Set fire to an icon
     Em
Set fire to the lie
     Em    G       F
Set fire, bid farewell
           Em
I'll be a martyr to myself
  C      Am
Where do I go
Em
  If every turn there's a vulture waiting
    C       Am
To pick at my bones
Em
And bury me alive?

Em A F

[Bridge]
Em         Am     F       Em
It's me against the world
      Em
It's me against the world
      Em
It's me against the world

[Bridge 2 + Breakdown]
Em
I feel their claws sinking in
        Em
As the life spirals out from my inner self
N.C.
Let the earth where I carved my name burn
Em
Burn

[Chorus]
     Em         G  F
Set fire to an icon
     Em
Set fire to the lie
     Em    G       F
Set fire, bid farewell
           Em
I'll be a martyr to myself
  C      Am
Where do I go
Em
  If every turn there's a vulture waiting
    C       Am
To pick at my bones
Em
And bury me alive?
  C      Am
Where do I go
Em
  If every turn there's a vulture waiting
    C       Am
To pick at my bones
Em
And bury me alive?

[Outro]
      Em
It's me against the world
      Em
It's me against the world
