The House is Burning Down - Patrick Park

Standard Tuning, No Capo


           Bbm               C#
Down the street the dogs are barking
        G#               F#
They're calling home the night
           Bbm             C#
Where some hearts will get broken
    G#                F#
and some will come to life
       C#           G#
On and on and on we ride this wave
       Fm              
til it all gets set alive

Bbm  C# F#m

   Bbm               C#
Outside the world is changing
           G#                     F#
though you never see the wheel in spin
        Bbm                C#
All the things you come to know and like
     G#            F#
will pass into the wind
       C#           G#     
On and on and on we turn like tops 
       Fm
til it all gets set alive

  F#                G#      C#
I know the house is burning down 
    F#            G#       Fm
but I still can't seem to leave it

Bbm C# F#m

   Bbm                 C#
Before the void it takes us
        G#            F#
and the conversations run
       Bbm                 C#
We tie up this string that binds us
          G#          F#
and makes many rivers one
       C#               G#
on and on we'll go sleepwalking 
        Fm
through all the damage done

  F#                G#      C#
I know the house is burning down
    F#            G#       Fm
But I still can't seem to leave
  F#                G#      C#
I know the house is burning down
    F#            G#       Fm
But I still can't seem to leave
