Am G F C
Am G F G
[Verse]
Am
I still cheer for you
F
Ten years down the line
Time
C
Stepped away from me
Am
Stained with tiger stripes
C
Losing all your lives
F G
Stray from this boring dream
Am
What must it be like
With your world alight
F
Hard to swallow
C
But hunger's the best spice
Am
Catch a warrior's eye
G
With an asteroid's sign
F G
Stray
[Chorus]
Am
How could I stay here and rust
C G
When I'm set to explode?
Am
You can outrun everything
C G
But the debts that you owe
Am
You think I'm vicious
C G
But you don't know what vicious is
Am
I'm numb from the distance
C
So stub out the stars on my wrist
G Am
Stub out the stars on my wrist
Am G F G (x2)
[Verse]
Am
If it's just the bored
F
Asking this kind of thing
C
Where do we fit in?
Am
Watch the star dust rise
C
With your reddened eyes
F G
Take what you want from it
Am
We're the last ones left
Left to convalesce
F
Get the others
G
And cut to the next Scene
Am
To be truly free
G
Freedom comes not from, but through me
F G
Take
[Chorus]
Am
How could I stay here and rust
C G
When I'm set to explode?
Am
You can outrun everything
C G
But the debts that you owe
Am
You think I'm vicious
C G
But you don't know what vicious is
Am
I'm numb from the distance
C
So stub out the stars on my wrist
G Am
Stub out the stars on my wrist
[Bridge]
G F C
Am Em F
C G Dm
Do you remember when the stars
F
Were much higher?
C F G F G
You would try to count them all
F
But you grew tired - tired - tired
[Solo]

[Chorus]
How could I stay here and rust
Am C G
When I'm set to explode?

But you don't know what vicious is

So stub out the stars on my wrist
G Am
Stub out the stars on my wrist.
