[Verse]
A
Look who's digging their own grave, that is what they all say
C#m B
You'll drink yourself to death
A
Look who makes their own bed, lies right down within it
C#m B
What will you have left?
A
Out on the front door step, drinking from a paper cup
C#m B
You won't remember this
A
Living beyond your years, acting out all their fears
C#m B
You feel it in your chest
A C#m E B
Your hands protect the flames, from the wild winds around you
[Chorus]
C#m A E B
Icarus is flying too close to the sun
C#m A E B
Icarus' life, it has only just begun
It's just begun
C#m A B
ooh oh oh oh ohh ohh
[Verse 2]
A
Standing on the cliff face, highest fall you'll ever grace
C#m B
It scares me half to death

Look out to the future, but it tells you nothing
C#m B
So take another breath
A C#m E B
Your hands protect the flames from the wild winds around you
[Chorus]
C#m A E B
Icarus is flying too close to the sun

Icarus' life, it has only just begun

Put up your defences when you leave
C#m E
You leave because you're certain
A B
Of who you want to be

You're putting up your armour when you leave
C#m E
And you leave because you're certain
A B
Of who you want to be, ohhh
[Chorus]
