[Verse 1]
D G D Asus2
I don't wanna see the wires in the circus anymore
D G D
I wanna dream and make believe people can fly
D G D Asus2
I don't need to be reminded what it takes to kill the fun
Bm G D
I've got a head full of sharp knives
[Bridge]
D G D Asus2
Yeah, it's easy to get colder, and it's easy to forget
D G D
So meet me where the light's dim
D G D Asus2
We can wake up every mornin', we can set ourselves on fire
D G D
And we can do it all again
(Optional A lead-in)
[Chorus]
Bm G D
The world don't speak for us
Bm G D
They lack the confidence
Bm G D
Yeah, we're only hearts and bones and blood
Bm D
Oh, but we are giants, giants
Bm G D
The walls are closing in
Bm G D
We climb and they descend
Bm G D
With nothing but the clouds against our skin
Bm D
Oh, we are giants, giants
[Verse 2]
D G D Asus2
I wanna roll around the darkness 'Til the darkness goes away
D G D
'Til the television finally tells the truth
D G D G
You know everybody's scared of things they don't understand
Bm G D
And all the living that they don't do
[Bridge]
D G D Asus2
Yeah, it's easy to get colder, and it's easy to forget
D G D
So meet me where the light's dim
D G D Asus2
We can wake up every mornin', we can set ourselves on fire
D G D
And we can do it all again

The walls are closing in
Bm G D
We climb and they descend
Bm G D
With nothing but the clouds against our skin
Bm D
Oh, we are giants, giants
[Verse 3]
G D
I'm done tryin' to fit in and be half forgiven
Bm A
for things that I never did
G D
We're more than what scares us, we're final and fearless
Bm A
We'll dance where the ice gets thin
Gets thin
[Chorus]
Bm G D
The world don't speak for us
Bm G D
They lack the confidence
Bm G D
Yeah, we're only hearts and bones and blood
