Verse 1
Pour [C]mercy, mercy on me, set [C]fire to history
I'm [F]breakin' my own rules, I'm [C]cryin' like a fool
Tall [C]stories on the page, short [C]glories on the fade
I been [F]close enough to touch, but I [C]never cared for love
Pre-Chorus
It's a [Am]church of burnt [C]romances
And I'm [F]too far gone to [C]pray
It's a [F]solo [C/E] [Dm]song and it's [G]only for the [C]brave [C]
Chorus
If the [Fmaj7]truth tell, darling, [C]you fell
Like there [E7]ain't enough dying stars in your [Am]sky [G]
It's a [F]tall tale, and it's [C]only hello, hello, no [G]goodbye
Verse 2
Pour [C]mercy, mercy on me, I'll [C]fall upon my knees
And they'll [F]say, "I told you so
Come on, [C]when you know, you know"
All the [F]lonely shadow dances from the [C]cradle to the grave
It's a [F]solo [C/E] [Dm]song and it's [G]only for the [C]brave
