Bm I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious D when you drown And if the words float up to the surface, F#m7 I'll keep them down This is the first time I know Em I don't want the crown, you can take it now You promised the world and brought me it hangin' from a string Stuck it in my mouth, into my throat, told me to sing That was the first time I knew you can't kill the king And those who kiss the ring Chorus: Bm Tell me how D It's better when the sun goes down F#m We'll never escape this town Em I wasn't scared when you caught me, look what it taught me Bm Tell me how D It's better if I make no sound F#m I'll never escape these dens Em I wasn't dead when you found me, watch as they pull me down I'm writing a chapter on what to do after they dig you up On what to do after you grew to hate what you used to love That was the first time I knew they were out for blood And they would have your guts Chorus Bm Watch as they pull me down D Watch as they pull me down F#m7 Pulling me down Em Dead when they found me watch as they pull me down Watch as they pull me down Watch as they pull me down Pulling me down Dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown And if the words float up to the surface, I'll keep them down This is the first time I know I don't want the crown You can take it now (You can take it now) You can take it now (You can take it now) Take it now (Take it now) You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsBm  D  Em  F#m  F#m7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
