verse 1 
F                      G 
   I, I can't lie, I'm scared to open my eyes, 'cause 
Am                Em 
   What if I find nothing at all, nothing at all? 
F                          G 
   What is the point of my lips if they don't make noise, oh 
Am                            Em 
   What is the point of doing nothing at all, watching it fall? 

Pre-Chorus 1 
    F                             G 
The flicker burning, you know the time is running, running out 
Am                 Em            
Only I see all the diamonds, diamonds, breaking down 
  F                                            G 
I won't stay quiet, I won't stay quiet, 'cause staying silent's the same as dying 
  Am                                       Em 
I won't stay quiet, the flicker's burning low 
 
                            F           G 
This is not a, this is not a swan, swan song 
                            Am          Em 
This is not a, this is not a swan, swan song 
                            F           G 
We just gotta, we just gotta hold on tonight 
                             Am                             Em 
This is not a, this is not a swan song, swan song, swan dive (yeah), it's a new life 

verse 2 
F                G 
   Real fantasy, wishing it was make-believe, ahh 
Am                             Em 
   What is the reason of doing nothing at all, watching it fall? 

Pre-Chorus 2 
    F                             G 
The flicker burning, you know the time is running, running out 
Am                 Em            
Only I see all the diamonds, diamonds, breaking down 
  F                                            G 
I won't stay quiet, I won't stay quiet, 'cause staying silent's the same as dying 
  Am                                       Em 
I won't stay quiet, the flicker's burning low
