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