Em All the way from where we came B Built a mansion in a day Am Distant lightning, thunder claps G Watched our neighbor's house collapse B Looked the other way Em And then, the storm was overhead B All the oceans boiled and rivers bled Am We auctioned off our memories G In the absence of a breeze B Scatter what remains Scatter what remains Chorus: C Pushed away, I'm pulled toward Em A comedown of revolving doors D Every warning we ignored C Drifting in from distant shores C The wind presents a change of course Em A second reckoning of sorts D We were wasted, waiting for C A comedown of revolving doors C (ah ah ah ah) Em (ah ah ah ah) D C (ah ah ah ah) C Fate don't fail me now (ah ah ah ah) Em (ah ah ah ah) D C (ah ah ah ah) And when the days that followed passed In another mansion built to last From our window, we could see Only possibilities down the road and back But then, the storm returned for more In a comedown of revolving doors Auctioned off our memories In the absence of a breeze Scatter what remains Scatter what remains Chorus (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) Fate don't fail me now (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) Fate don't fail me now (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) Fate don't fail me now (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) (ah ah ah ah) Fate don't fail me now You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  D  Em  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
