Intro: C--Em,  C--Em--Am--G#-Eb-


Verse 1:
C
  He bends and he breaks 
Em                            F
  If he gives they will take away 
    Fm                   C
His passion his pain his grace 
          Em
He exhales A thousand
                F
black flowers explode 
     Fm                      G#
Into butterflies as they're away 


Chorus:
C
Rip them out take them 
Burn to coals as they crush 
          Em
And leave nothing that 
                      Am
Resembles a soul of a man 
See him numb, see him crushed 
        G#            Eb
See him numb, see him crushed 
(Repeat)


Verse 3:
C                                  Em
   Just a fire inside one too many times 
                                Am
He's burning over and out as he fails 
   F           Fm     C
Up against the raging tides 
No more sides 
               Em
Everything you ever wanted to see 
                Am
I see it in his eyes 
         F    Fm
One more time one more time 
F
Climb down to test the waters 
   G#
My hands feel like they're
             C    Em
rusting away yeah yeah 
   F
So I'll pace around like a
G#
lamb before the slaughter 
      C
I'll stay here as 
Em
long as you let me 
  F
Decisions then
made obvious
   G#
So I will return to where
   C             Em
I started, I'll stay there 
F                       G#(hold)
Unfinished I'll wither away 


(Repeat Chorus)


Outro: C--Em--Am--G#--C(hold)
