Em D C Am I thought we had a place, just our place, our home base, my headspace Em D C Am Was you and I always, but that phase has been phased in our place Em D C Am I see it on your face, a small trace, a blank slate, we've been erased Em D C Am But if we're way too faded to drive, you can stay one more night Chorus: Em D C Am We said we'd both love harder than we knew we could go Em D C Am But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go Em D C Am You wanted to go higher, higher, higher Em Burn too bright, now the fire's gone Watch it all fall down: Babylon Em D C Am Babylon Em D C Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down I'm tired of the feud, your short fuse My half-truths are not amused I wish we had a clue to start new A white moon, no residue The colour of our mood is so rude A cold June, we're not immune But if we're way too faded to fight You can stay one more night Chorus: We said we'd both love harder than we knew we could go But still the hardest part is knowin' when to let go You wanted to go higher, higher, higher We burnt too bright, now the fire's gone Watch it all fall down: Babylon Babylon We burnt too bright, now the fire's gone Watch it all fall down Chorus: We said we'd both love harder than we knew we could go But still, the hardest part is knowin' when to let go You wanted to go higher, higher, higher We burnt too bright, now the fire's gone Watch it all fall down We said we'd both loved harder than we knew we could go (Than we knew we could go) But still, the hardest part is knowin' when to let go (To let go) You wanted to go higher, higher, higher (Higher, higher, higher) We burnt too bright, now the fire's gone Watch it all fall down: Babylon Babylon We burnt too bright, now the fire's gone Watch it all fall down | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA Am C D Em Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
