  Am            Fmaj7
All gone, all gone
                                   Dm
Watching it go up out front on the lawn
                    C
Stay on my feet somehow
           Am
I’m strong now
      Dm        G
Stuck there, no air

Am              Fmaj7
Head high, head high
                                      Dm
Tongues of fire that reach up for the sky
                 C
Rise through the smoke
                 Am
The dust of the grave
  Dm         G
I will be saved

F             C
Pause in mid-stride
F             C
Pause in mid-stride
C/B          Am         G         Fmaj7
And ride, and ride, and ride, and ride

Am              Fmaj7
Burn hard, burn hard
                                 Dm
Smoldering pieces landing in the yard
               C
Trace names in ash
       Am         Dm
Big names, old friends
         G
And dead ends

Bm             C
Those last few frames
Bm         C
Go down so fast
Bm               C
Rise through the flames
           Em              F
And end again in flames at last

Stay free, stay free
                                    Dm
Invisible armies march by night for me
           C
Stay on my guard
     Am
Burn hard
     Dm
Rage on
     G
All gone
