 B                      F#m
Run and tell all of the angels
  E
This could take all night
  B                      F#m                E
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
 B                   F#m
Hook me up a new revolution
        E
Cause this one is a lie
    B                        F#m                   E
We sat around laughing, and watching the last one die

Chorus:
     B                     F#m
I'm looking to the sky to save me
 E
Looking for a sign of life
 B                        F#m               E
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
     B                  F#m
I'm looking for a complication
 E
Looking 'cause I'm tired of lying
 G                A                  B
Make my way back home and learn to fly

Think I'm done nursing the patience,
It could wait one night.
Give it all away if you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life.
Run and tell the angels that everything's alright.

Chorus

Make my way back home when I learn to fly.

B G              D                    E
along with me I can't quite make it alone.
  G               A
Try to make this life my own.
  B   G              D                    E
Fly along with me I can't quite make it alone.
  G               A
Try to make this life my own.

     B                     F#m
I'm looking to the sky to save me,

Looking for something to help me burnout bright.

I'm looking for a complication,

Looking 'cause I'm tired of trying.
 G                A
Make my way back home when I learn to
