Tom: F#m
A
You threw me down
A
You stole my fame
A
You would not stop until
E
You crucified my name
E
You took my boast
E
Put it in the ground
E
Buried it in water
A
Now the water’s showin’ how
A
I got this spotless reputation
A
Not my own
A
Give me joy and fire
E
Keep it burnin’ in my soul
E
But every triumph
E
I count as mine
E
It turns to stone
A
And stone don’t often catch on fire
[Verse]
A
So spend some time with me
E
Grace, spend some time with me
E
Take these stone shackles
A
And set me free
D
Just give me what fire
D
Will need to burn
A
Show me that true love
A
And I’ll return
A E A
But till then I’ll forget you and say
[Chorus 1]
A
You threw me down
A
You stole my fame
A
You would not stop until
E
You crucified my name
E
You took my boast
E
Put it in the ground
E
Buried it in water
A
Now the water’s showin’ how
A
I got this spotless reputation
A
Not my own
A
Give me joy and fire
E
Keep it burnin’ in my soul
E
But every triumph
E
I count as mine
E
It turns to stone
A
And stone don’t often catch on fire
[Bridge]
F#m D A
If joy is like a fire burnin’ in my soul
E F#m
(In my soul)
D A F#m
The last thing I desire is to feed it stone
D
Cuz stone will just pretend to be your friend
A C#7
Because he’s warm inside the fire
F#m
(Warm inside the fire)
D
But in time he will grow cold
D
And you’ll grow cold
E
Until you know the reason why
[Chorus 2]
A
So please throw me down
A
And steal my fame
A
Please don’t stop until
E
You crucify my name
E
Take my boast
E
Put it in the ground
E
Bury it in water
A
Now the water’s showin’ how
A
I got this spotless reputation
A
Not my own
A
Give me joy and fire
E
Keep it burnin’ in my soul
E
But every triumph
E
I count as mine
E
It turns to stone
A
And stone don’t often catch on fire
