Bastille - Icarus chords

Highlighted       Show chord diagrams
This is an easy song to play, just listen to it to get the rhythm or play it however you 
want around these chords! Pretty sure they're all correct :)

I think the chorus sounds better with a D/F# rather than just a D but either makes sense 
and D is a litter easier to play.


Intro:
Em         C       D
Ohhh oh oh oh ohhh ohhh
Em         C       D
ohhh oh oh oh ohhh ohhh

Verse 1:
C
Look who's digging their own grave, that is what they all say
Em                       D
You'll drink yourself to death
C
Look who makes their own bed, lies right down within it
Em                 D
What will you have left?
C
Out on the front door step, drinking from a paper cup
Em                 D
You won't remember this
C
Living beyond your years, acting out all their fears
Em                  D
You feel it in your chest

       C                Em               G               D
Your hands protect the flames, from the wild winds around you


Chorus:
Em         C         G            D
Icarus is flying to close to the sun
Em       C            G          D
Icarus' life, it has only just begun

It's just begun

Em        C       D
ooh oh oh oh ohh ohh

Verse 2:
C
Standing on the cliff face, highest fall you'll ever grace
Em                      D
It scares me half to death
C
Look out to the future, but it tells you nothing
Em                  D
So take another breath

      C                  Em             G                 D
Your hands protect the flames from the wild winds around you


Chorus:
Em          C        G            D
Icarus is flying to close to the sun
Em       C           G           D
Icarus' life, it has only just begun
Em             C               G   D
This is how it feels to take a fall
Em         C        G              D
Icarus is flying towards an early grave


Bridge:
C                                D
Put up your defences when you leave
Em                         G
You leave because you're certain
    C              D
Of who you want to be
C                                        D
You're putting up your armour when you leave
         Em                    G
And you leave because you're certain
    C              D
Of who you want to be, ohhh


Chorus:
Em          C        G            D
Icarus is flying to close to the sun
Em       C           G           D
Icarus' life, it has only just begun
Em             C               G   D
This is how it feels to take a fall
Em         C        G              D
Icarus is flying towards an early grave

Em          C    D
oohh oh oh ohh ohhh   x2
