[Intro]
Em
Put on your war paint
 
 
[Verse]
Em
You are a brick tied to me that's dragging me down
Em
Strike a match and I'll burn you to the ground
Em
We are the jack-o-lanterns in July
Setting fire to the sky
Em
Here, here comes this rising tide so come on
 
Em
Put on your war paint
 
Em
Cross walks and crossed hearts and hope to die
Em
Silver clouds with grey linings
 
          Em7                          Am6    Em
So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked
     Em7                     Am6     Em
One maniac at a time we will take it back
         Em7                         Am6/C          Em
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to start
Em                    D               N.C.
So dance alone to the beat of your heart
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D         Em               C/E
Hey young blood doesn't it feel
         A/E              C/E
Like our time is running out
D            Em                C/E
I'm going to change you like a remix
          A/E              C/E
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
       D           Em           C/E
You're wearing our vintage misery
               A/E                       C/E
No, I think it looked a little better on me
D            Em                C/E
I'm going to change you like a remix
C/E       A/E              N.C.    Em
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
 
 
[Verse]
Em
Bring home the boys in scraps
 
Scrap metal the tanks
Em
Get hitched make a career out of robbing banks
Em
Because the world is just a teller and we are wearing black masks
Em
"You broke our spirit," says the note we pass
 
          Em7                          Am6    Em
So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked
     Em7                     Am6     Em
One maniac at a time we will take it back
         Em7                         Am6/C          Em
You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to start
Em                    D                N.C.
So dance alone to the beat of your heart
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D         Em               C/E
Hey young blood doesn't it feel
         A/E              C/E
Like our time is running out
D            Em                C/E
I'm going to change you like a remix
          A/E              C/E
Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
       D           Em           C/E
You're wearing our vintage misery
               A/E                       C/E
No, I think it looked a little better on me

Then I'll raise you like a phoenix
 
Em
Put on your war paint

The war is won before it's begun

Release the doves

Surrender love  (x4)
 
 
[Chorus]
