🎶 Paper Throne

They said, [Db]"Bend your knees
Take our vows and we'll [D#]set you free"
Just for now you can [Db]drown in gold
'Til your lungs give in[D#]
Go [Db]stuff yourself with plastic
Forget the things that made you [D#]whole
[Db]You're made to fit their mold oh[A#][Cb]
No [A#]I don't need your paper throne
Oh [D#]I know the fall won't break my fragile bones[A#]
Even the fools know nothing is forever[Db]
No [A#]I don't need your paper crown
For it [Em7]won't be long 'til your world comes crashing down[A#]
I won't trade my [Cb]soul for your paper[Db][D#][Db][Em7][D#]
[Db]Corrupted dreams
Of a child thinking [Em7]all she needs
For the while is to [Db]taste the stars
'Til her tongue burns dry[Em7]
Get [Db]rid of all your boundaries
All the things you used to hold[Em7]
You're under their control[Db], oh [Cb][Em7][A#][Cb]
No [A#]I don't need your paper throne
Oh [D#]I know the fall won't break my fragile bones[A#]
Even the fools know nothing is forever[Db]
No [A#]I don't need your paper crown
For it [Em7]won't be long 'til your world comes crashing down[A#]
I won't trade my [Cb]soul for your paper[Db][D#][Db]
[Db][Gsus2](x4)
[D#]
[D#]You're made to fit their [Db]mold
[D#]You're under their [Db]control
[D#]You're made to fit their [Db]mold
[D#]You're under their [Db]control
