G                  C               D
I've spent my life trying to understand
G                       C       D
Just how my life led to where I am
C      D                    C
But it leaves a bitter taste
    D                 G
And feels like such a waste

 Bm     C       D
I am so totally vague
           G    Bm    C        D
Betray the dark line, see if I care
  G     Bm  C          D
I loved you when I was young
       G
But no more
Am C             D         G
So burn down the fireman's fair

intro x2

G                C         D
Memory plays its tricks on me
   G              C          D
In my mind's eye, I claim to see
C          D               C
I'm losing every race I run
       D             G
Making misery out of fun

Bm C            D
So bulldoze the new road 
        G  Bm
they're driving
C                 D
Slash the beanbag chair
    G    Bm     C       D
You held me for so very long
       G
But no more
Am C             D         G
So burn down the fireman's fair

intro x2

F                G
How many type of things do we think we need?
F                          G
But that doesn't make them true
F                       G
I'm a little afraid I'm falling far and free
F                     G  Bm C D
I'll leave that up to you
             G  Bm C D
That's up to you

             G    Bm C       D
So won't you find me totally vague
            G  Bm C        D
A drain has died, see if I care
  G     Bm  C          D
I loved you when I was young
       G
But no more
Am C             D         G   Bm C D
So burn down the fireman's fair
          G   Bm 
Fireman's fair
C             D         G   Bm C D
Burn down the fireman's fair
          G   Bm
Fireman's fair
C             D         F    
Burn down the fireman's fair
