Intro:

G C Dsus4

Verse 1:

G
  People living in a house of cards
      C                              Dsus4
Up to knees in the wreckage when the wind blows hard
G
  Made a vow baby that still stands
         C                        Dsus4
And I'll take that promise to the promise land

Bridge:

C                              Dsus4
Take a look around you and the map we need
    G               C
And throw it on the fire
Am7                    Dsus4
Talkin' 'bout the 20th century

Chorus:

 (Gmaj7) G              C
Oh midnight gonna burn it down 
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down
(Gmaj7) G   C

Verse 2:

G
  People living in a house of glass
       C                           Dsus4
Wonder where upon earth they gonna hide their trash
G
  Don't you think it's such a waste of space
         C                            Dsus4
When you can't move on because you're       saving face

Bridge:

C                            Dsus4
See it as an offer now as an effigy
    G               C
And throw it on the fire
Am7                    Dsus4
Talkin' 'bout the 20th century

Chorus:

 (Gmaj7) G              C
Oh midnight gonna burn it down 
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down

Middle part:

          D
In just a matter of time if you fan those flames
             Am(7)
You're gonna make 'em catch
         D
I've got nothing to hold onto except my heart
       Am(7)           C
And my heart is set on striking a match

Verse 3:

G
  People living in a house of mirrors
       C                              Dsus4
Get so self-obsessed they're bound to       disappear
G
   And they can't prove that they were ever there
         C                    Dsus4
When the silver peels off and they're nowhere

Bridge:

C                               Dsus4
Take a look inside you and it's       plain to see
            G               C
What you're throwing in the fire
Am7                    Dsus4
Talkin' 'bout the 20th century

Chorus:

 (Gmaj7) G              C
Oh midnight gonna burn it down 
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down
(Gmaj7) G        C
  Midnight gonna burn it down
      G                  C
Gonna burn it all down
      G                  C
Gonna burn it all down
Dsus4 C Dsus4 G
