[Verse 1]
Em
One is for envy and one just for spite
C
The cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes
G
Don't make it better, the twisting knife turns all
D
by itself, on to someone else.

Em
Your self-liberation will leave this behind
C
Beyond slings and arrows that rain on our minds
G
You'll make it better, shake it off
              D                    G
It never mattered anyway...

[Chorus]
     G                         D
If we don't make it alive
                                            Em
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.
            D                          C
All our light that shines strong
           D              G
Only lasts for so long.
                                       D
And it's ashes to ashes again
                                        Em
Should we even try to pretend?
            D                          C
All our light that shines strong
          D                G
Only lasts for so long.

[Verse 2]
Em
The banner you're waving is burning and red
C
It's blocking the sunlight that shines overhead
G
You against the world, diamonds and pearls
             D
Voices inside you churn, watch the city burn
Em
Your own liberation will leave them behind
C
All the slings and arrows that rain on your mind
G
Don't make it better, break it 'cause it never
D                      G
mattered anyway...

[Chorus]
     G                       D   
If we don't make it alive
                                            Em
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.
            D                           C
All our light that shines strong
          D                 G
Only lasts for so long.
                                      D
And it's ashes to ashes again
                                       Em
Should we even try to pretend?
             D                         C
All our light that shines strong
           D               G
Only lasts for so long.

[Bridge]
Em C    G     D
Em C    G     D
I won't calm down
Em
The banner you're waving
C
Is burning and red
G
You against the world, diamonds and pearls
               D                                                 G
It never mattered, mattered, mattered anyway...

[Chorus]
    G                        D
If we don't make it alive
                                             Em
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.
            D                           C
All our light that shines strong
          D                G
Only lasts for so long.
                                       D
And it's ashes to ashes again
                                       Em
Should we even try to pretend?
            D                         C
All our light that shines strong
          D               Em
Only lasts for so long.
             D                           C
All our light that shines strong
          D               G
Only lasts for so long.
