[Verse]

Em
 Boys will be poison
               G
Girls will be war
Am                    Em
 Your path has been chosen
                   G    Am           C
Your voice has been torn out at the roots
              D
What else is new?
B/D#      Em
 Boo hoo
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

           G                          C       
With that fire in your eyes, little starling, 
   G/B       Em
what's with you?

You promised you wouldn't get angry,

G           D          
 We are so far, so lost, 
       Em
it's true
                            G
We can't attempt to start anew
             D
We lost our way so long ago
Em                                  G
 Chopping things down before they grow
              D
Been gone so long, 

we went too far
Em
 Like crashing jets 

and shooting stars
G            D               Em
 We let the best of us burn down, 

hot autumn nights in Chinatown

[Verse]

Em
 Life can be murder
              G
Death can be calm
Am               Em           
 Yet no one in their right mind 
                        G
thinks they dΠ΅serve to fall
Am                 C
 Shot out of your boots
              D
What elsΠ΅ is new?
B/D#      Em
 Boo hoo

little starling, what's with you?
      C                       D       
You promised you wouldn't get angry, 
 B/D#             Em
now we're through

We can't attempt to start anew

We lost our way so long ago
