Cm G# A#
Ohhh oh oh oh ohhh ohhh
Cm G# A#
ohhh oh oh oh ohhh ohhh
[Verse]
G#
Look who's digging their own grave, that is what they all say
Cm A#
You'll drink yourself to death
G#
Look who makes their own bed, lies right down within it
Cm A#
What will you have left?
G#
Out on the front door step, drinking from a paper cup
Cm A#
You won't remember this
G#
Living beyond your years, acting out all their fears
Cm A#
You feel it in your chest
G# Cm D# A#
Your hands protect the flames, from the wild winds around you
[Chorus]
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus is flying too close to the sun
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus' life, it has only just begun
It's just begun
Cm G# A#
ooh oh oh oh ohh ohh
[Verse 2]
G#
Standing on the cliff face, highest fall you'll ever grace
Cm A#
It scares me half to death
G#
Look out to the future, but it tells you nothing
Cm A#
So take another breath
G# Cm D# A#
Your hands protect the flames from the wild winds around you
[Chorus]
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus is flying too close to the sun
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus' life, it has only just begun
Cm G# D# A#
This is how it feels to take a fall
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus is flying towards an early grave
[Bridge]
G# A#
Put up your defences when you leave
Cm D#
You leave because you're certain
G# A#
Of who you want to be
G# A#
You're putting up your armour when you leave
Cm D#
And you leave because you're certain
G# A#
Of who you want to be, ohhh
[Chorus]
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus is flying too close to the sun
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus' life, it has only just begun
Cm G# D# A#
This is how it feels to take a fall
Cm G# D# A#
Icarus is flying towards an early grave
Cm G# A#
