My Chemical Romance - The Foundations Of Decay Chords

[Intro]
Am  Am/G  Am/F  Am/E   Dm    Esus4  E
Am  Am/G  Am/F  Am/E   Dm    Esus4  E
 
[Verse 1]
Am      F         G               Em
See the man which stands upon the hill
F              Dm              Esus4   E
  He dreams of all the battles won
     Am      F    G              Em
But fate had left scars upon his face
F               Dm             Esus4  E
  With all the damage they had done
 
[Pre-chorus]
        F         G      Em
And so time, with age it hurts
    Am    G         F
The pages left with flesh
F                E
Submit itself to gravity
 
[Chorus]
         F                   G
Left our bodies lay with our hearts, we say
        Em
Let our blood and pain
        Am          G
Feel forgotten pain--
F                            G
  If your convictions were a passing phase
        Em                          Am        G
May our ashes feed the river in the morning rays
F                             E                               Am
  And as the vermin crawls we lay in the foundations of decay
 
[Verse 2]
Am         F
And he was there
    G              Em
The day the towers fell
F           Dm                Esus4  E
  And so he wandered down the road
    Am       F
And we would all
      G             Em
Build towers of our own
F         Dm               Esus4   E
  Only to watch the roots corrode
         F        G
But it's much too late
       Em     Am   G     F
You're in the race so impress
F                               E
Impress till you can't take it anymore
 
[Chorus]
         F                 G
Left our eyes red with our hearts, we say
        Em
Let our blood and pain
        Am          G
Feel forgotten pain
F                            G
  And if by his own hand his spirit flies,  
         Em                    Am        G
Take his body as a relic to be canonized
F                         E
  And so he gets to die a saint but she will always be the whore

[Chorus]
F     G         Em           Am   G
You---- you must fix your heart
F      G                Em             Am   G
  And you must build an altar where it was---
         F                           G
When the storm decays at this dying rate
       Em
Let it flood, let it flood
       Am        G
Let it wash away
F                                    G
  At last, we'll stumble through the last crusade
        Em                          Am          G
When we welcome your extinction in alarming ways--
F                              E
  And as the swarming calls to lay in the foundations
 
[Outro]
       Am               F     Esus4  E
Yes it comforts me much more
        Am               F
Yes, it comforts me much more
   Esus4            E
To lay in the foundations of decay
Bb Am     Bb Am    Bb Am
      Give      up      coward
