[Intro]
F F F F
G G G G
[Verse 1]
F F
I excavated a part of my brain
F F
That has lain dormant for years almost disappeared
G G
Where the prisoners all got locked away
G G
All my most beautiful wonderful friends
F F
There is one that is always afraid
F F
One who doesn't care what people say
G G
There is one who slits throats for money, and
G G
One who just wants to be king for a day
[Pre-Chorus]
F F
We are a children
F G Am Am G G
Of happenstance
[Chorus]
C C
I could make you love me
Dm Dm
I could take you with me
Em Em
I could run forever chasing
F F
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
C C
In my farthest corners
Dm Dm
I can feel the explosions
Em Em F
The booming river deep beneath my feet
F
Echoes, echoes
[Interlude]
F F F G Am Am G G
[Verse 2]
F F
Mirror, mirror where are my miracles?
F F
I looked deep in your eyes, they were very cold
G G
There are photos plastered across the walls
G G
People just want to believe in deities
F F
Having amazing conversations
F F
VIP booths, sexual truths
G G
True loveing kindness, who can be like this
G G
Just lie a little bit
[Pre-Chorus]

We are a children
