Dmaj7       Bm
Chasing birds to get high
Em7                 A
My head is in the clouds
Dmaj7       Bm
Chasing birds to get by
Em7               A
I'm never coming down

Chorus:
Em7                         A
My heart is six feet underground
Bm           Bm/A               E/G#
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
 G                  D   F#m
Dark inventions of mine
Bm                              E/G#
The road to hell is paved with broken parts
  G                   Dmaj7
Bleeding hearts like mine


Chasing birds through the sky
And deep into the black
Chasing birds say goodbye
I'm never coming back

Chorus

Chasing birds to get high
I'm never coming down
