Effigy

G#m E (4x) C#m D#m A E I watched the sun cut through your bedroom C#m D#m A E and make its way across the floor C#m D#m E A I drifted off to somewhere and back to where you are C#m D#m A E The lights are up, We made it through the bars A E Like a lost stray, I'm coming home again A E Try to fly straight, But every now and then A E life becomes grey, And it takes a lot of sin A E to feel alive on the streets here at night C#m D#m A E But nothing's ever lost forever C#m D#m A E I'll find my way up off the floor C#m D#m E A But even on my best days I'm half of who you are C#m D#m A E I fucked it up, and I can't wash away the scars A E Like a lost stray, I'm coming home again A E Try to fly straight, But every now and then A E life becomes grey, And it takes a lot of sin A E to feel alive on the streets here at night A E I know I won't break, but if you want to take B E all I have we'll burn it up in effigy A E It's been a tail spin; I'll reap the whirlwind B C#m all I have we'll burn it up in effigy A E I'll play a new part; I'll make a new start B E All I was we'll burn it up in effigy A E B It's such a long war, but what I want more is you and me C#m The rest can burn in effigy G#m E (4x) Repeat Chorus End on E
