[Intro]
G D A A (x2)
[Verse]
G D
Cheated and lied, broken so bad
A A
You made a vow, never get mad
G D
You play the game, though it's unfair
A A
They're all the same, who can compare?
G D A A
First you lose trust, then you get worried
G D
Night after night, bar after club
A A
Dropping like flies, who woke you up
G D
On the front lawn, sprinklers turned on
A A
It's not your house, where'd you go wrong?
G D A A
First you get hurt, then you feel sorry
[Chorus]
G D
Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
A A
Heavy as a feather when, you hit the dirt
G D
How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve
A A
To wait around forever when, you were there first
G D A A
First you get hurt, then you feel sorry
[Verse]
G D
There comes a time, in a short life
A A
Turn it around, get a rewrite
G D
Call it a dark, night of the soul
A A
Ticking of clocks, gravity’s pull
G D A A
First you get close, then you get worried
[Ulangi Chorus]
[Verse]
G D
You're going silent, the silent treatment
A A
It's not inviting now, don't deny what you meant
G D
You get excited, you get excited
A A
You got a feel it, oh, at least you can pretend
G D
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
A A
You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends
G D A A
You get excited, you get excited
[Ulangi Chorus x2]
[Bridge]
G D A A
First you get close, then you get worried (x4)
[Outro]
G D
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
A A
You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends
G D
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
G D A
You wanna light it now, the candle from both ends
