Capo: 3rd fret
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 G
A million miles to a cemetery
Bm Em
A flower across your chest
Cadd9 G
A tear on a smile as you pray to a sky
Bm Em
But it won’t bring back your breath
Cadd9 G
You know it isn’t the love that you wish for
Bm Em
That you were misinformed as a child
Cadd9 G
‘Cause everything in those beautiful stories
Bm Em
Was only a part of the lie
Cadd9 G
That told you every tongue that you kissed was a royal
Bm Em
And you know that your godmother flies
Cadd9 G
And it all seems so important
Bm Em
‘Til you’re drifting off at night
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And the weight of your eyes and your face when you cry
Bm Em
Make the days you were young seem ages ago
Cadd9 G
If you could stay, would you go?
Bm Em
If you could stay, would you go?
[Interlude]
Cadd9 G Bm Em
(x2)
[Post-Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Four-by-four
Bm Em
You build your own life story
Cadd9 G
Build your own life story
Bm Em
Build your own
[Interlude]
Cadd9 G Bm Em x2
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 G
A million miles and a year went by
Bm Em
And you still can’t find your breath
Cadd9 G
Your tears went dry as you pray to a god
Bm Em
But he won’t bring back the dead
Cadd9 G
And it was never a love that you wished for
Bm Em
Even when you were just a child
Cadd9 G
‘Cause you knew everything in the stories
Bm Em
Were only a part of a lie
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And the weight of your eyes and your face when you cry
Bm Em
Make the days you were young seem ages ago
Cadd9 G
If you could stay, would you go?
Bm Em
If you could stay, would you go?
[Post-Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Four-by-four
Bm Em
You build your own life story
Cadd9 G
Build your own life story
Bm Em
Build your own
Cadd9 G
Four-by-four
Bm Em
You build your own life story
Cadd9 G
Build your own life story
Bm Em
Build your own
