      C             F         F
I was thrown in the boat
G           Am       Em
Cast out to sea
F                    G
Friendly with waves
           C             F       F
There were sharks below
G          Am       Em
Hungry for me
     F          G
So I dangled my leg

      C         F        F
I lit up like a match
          G        Am      Em
Because i bled gasoline
       F           G
Made a torch of myself
          C             F      F
Until the moon was mine
G             Am        Em
Stars made of me
      F           G
How I lit up that sky
