Bastille – Icarus chords

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       DOhhh oh oh oh ohhh ohhh
Em         C       Dohhh oh oh oh ohhh ohhh

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

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


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

It's just begun

Em        C       Dooh oh oh oh ohh ohh

Verse 2:
CStanding on the cliff face, highest fall you'll ever grace
Em                      DIt scares me half to death
CLook out to the future, but it tells you nothing
Em                  DSo take another breath

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


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


Bridge:
C                                DPut up your defences when you leave
Em                         GYou leave because you're certain
    C              DOf who you want to be
C                                        DYou're putting up your armour when you leave
         Em                    GAnd you leave because you're certain
    C              DOf who you want to be, ohhh


Chorus:

Em       C           G           DIcarus' life, it has only just begun
Em             C               G   DThis is how it feels to take a fall
Em         C        G              DIcarus is flying towards an early grave
