Paper Throne

[Intro]
G  Em G Em
 
 
[Verse 1]
G               G
    They said, "Bend your knees
                        Em
Take our vows and we'll set you    free"
                    G
Just for    now you can drown in gold
                        Em
'Til your lungs give in
 
 
   G
Go stuff yourself with plastic
                               Em
Forget the things that made you whole
  G                                 C D
You're made to fit their mold, oh
 
 
[Chorus]
   C
No I don't need your paper throne
   Em                                        C
Oh I know the fall won't break my fragile bones
                                       G
Even the fools know nothing is forever
 
 
   C
No I don't need your paper crown
    Em7                                            C
For it won't be long 'til your world comes crashing down
              D                        G Em G Em7 Em
I won't trade my soul for your paper
 
 
[Verse 2]
   G
Corrupted dreams
                   Em7
Of a child thinking all she needs
                         G
For the while is to taste the stars
                    Em7
'Til her tongue burns  dry
 
    G
Get rid of all your boundaries
                          Em7
All the things you used to hold
                         G     D Em7 C D
You're under their control, oh
 
 
[Chorus]
    C
No I don't need your paper throne
   Em                                        C
Oh I know the fall won't break my fragile bones
                                       G
Even the fools know nothing is forever
 
 
   C
No I don't need your paper crown
    Em7                                            C
For it won't be long 'til your world comes crashing down
              D                        G Em G
I won't trade my soul for your paper

[Outro]
            Em                     G
You're made to     fit their mold
        Em                   G
You're under   their control
 Em                              G
You're made to     fit their mold
        Em                   G
You're under   their control
