_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ I [C] thought the candle was gonna go [Em] out _ [Am] The wind was blowing [F] and the door was [C] open
But the candle never [Em] went out, never went [F]
out
_ _ _ _ [C] _ The wave found its way to the [G] shore I [Am]
thought it was a ripple [F] and nothing more
But [C] the wave found its way all the [Em] way [F] to the shore
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [Em]
Oh, [Am] I [F] wanna burn [C] this house [G]
I [Am] know I [F] wanna jump into [C] the fire
[G] _
[Am] Oh, [Ab] I've gotta [Am] tear them down [F] The pinnacles [C] of my [G] invisible [F] _ [C]
empire

_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Em] _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ all the gambling never works [G] twice All [Am] the distractions at the table [F] and the weighted dice
But [C] the thrill of it feels so nice [Em] You'd [F] do it all again
_ When [C] _ I look to the chips I'd [G] lose [Am] I'm standing on a platform [F] with my neck in the [C] loose
And I know it's not my time, [G] it's not my [F] _
_ time
_ _ _ [G] _

[G] _
[Am] Oh, I've [Ab] gotta tear [Am] them down [F] The pinnacles [Am] of [G] my invisible _ [C]

_ And _ if [Am] I do all the things I do While I tell [G]
myself that I'm staying true
No one ever [F]
stop, you know I never stop You know I never [D]
think about [G] it
_ [Em] _ [Am] Putting an end to all this time I [G] would spend with it on my mind
You know I never [F]
stop, you know I never stop You know I [D] always wondered about it
_ _ [G] I wondered about the wonder Oh [Am] Lord, [F] we're a [C] rusting crowd [G] now
[Am] I know [F] this dynasty [C] is [G] falling The [Am] crowd shout [E] for [Am] another round [F] to see the _ ruin
_ _ [G] The _ spectacular _ _ _ _ [F]
diamonds _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
bearing _ [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _
