ICARUS

[OTHERWORDLY Outro]
C#m
…And he told him
Db C#m
“Beware, do not fly too close to the sun
Ebm
The blaze will surely melt those wings.”
B
But alas, he fell
Db C#m
His cries, swallowed by the sea…

[Verse 1]
C#m
Fell out of the air and you broke your wings

Like you’re doing every other time
C#m
Made a new pair out of broken things

To give it all another try

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm C#m
And you climb right up
Bm C#m
To the highest peaks
Bm C#m
And reach out to the edge
Bm C#m
Of the world you seek
C#m
Afraid of heights
Bm C#m
But you don’t believe
Bm C#m Bm C#m
You could ever be good enough

[Chorus]
A F#m
Go on then Icarus
B C#m
Take your turn
A F#m
You always fly right up
B C#m
Until it burns
B A
Your wings you never could change
F#m B
Always the victim
C#m
Into the flames again
B A F#m
Go on then Icarus
B C#m
Take your turn
B
You’ll never go through them

[Verse 2]
C#m
Head in the clouds

Buried your feet in the ground
C#m B
Telling yourself it’s the world
A
That holds you down

[Pre-Chorus]
Em C#m
But you’ve got your chin held high
Bm C#m
And your chest pumped up
Bm C#m Bm C#m
The replica of a runner-up
C#m
You were made for skies
Bm C#m
But you called your bluff
Bm C#m Bm C#m
Now you’ll never be good enough

[Bridge]
C#m Bm C#m
So fall back down back down again
Bm C#m
You’ve got your heads in the clouds
Bm C#m C#m
On the ground again oh ooh…
Amaj7 A
Looking for a scapegoat to hold your feat
Amaj7
Pounding on your chest
A6
So you don’t feel weak
C#m
You fall back down back down again

[Chorus]
C#m
Go on then Icarus
C#m C#m
Take your turn
A F#m
You always fly right up
B C#m
Until it burns
B A
Your wings you never could change
F#m B
Always the victim
C#m
Into the flames again
A F#m
Go on then Icarus
B C#m
Take your turn
B
You’ll never go through them
