Twenty One Pilots - A Car, a Torch, a Death: chords

    A#                            F
The air begins to feel a little thin
      Dm                         C
As I start the car and then I begin
   A#                        F
To add the miles piled up behind me
   Dm                         C
I barely feel a smile deep inside me

        A#                                  F
And I begin to envy the headlights driving south
           Dm                           C
I want to crack the door so I can just fall out
     A#                              F
But then I remember when you packed my car
    Dm                                  C
You reached in the back and buckled up your heart
     A#     F    Dm   C
For me to drive away with

Chorus:
   A#      F      Dm
I began to understand
  C      A#
Why God died

The demon sat there waiting on her porch
It was a little dark, so he held a makeshift torch
And when my car was far out of sight
He crept in her room and stayed there for the night

           A#
And then I felt chills in my bones
              F
The breath I saw was not my own
           Dm
I knew my skin that wrapped my frame
        C
Wasn't made to play this game
            A#
And then I saw Him, torch in hand
            F
He laid it out, what he had planned
           Dm
And then I said, I'll take the grave
              C
Please, just send them all my way

Chorus

The air begins to feel a little thin
As we're waiting for the morning to begin
But for now, you told me to hold this jar
And when I looked inside, I saw it held your heart

For me to walk away with
I began to understand
Why God died
