[Verse 1]
Em          Bm                C
Twenty-five years or so, it's all I've ever known
Em                Bm          C
Pictures on the wall in the place that I call home
     Em           Bm                 C
We blew it up and burned it down and now we stand alone
Em                Bm            C
Flames so high in ashes down below
Em                Bm            C
Flames so high in ashes down below

[Chorus]
G                Bm           C
All my hopes and memories are blowing in the wind
  G                Bm              C
I started off with nothing and I'm back here once again
     Em              Bm
The little things in life are free
     C
The simple things, like you and me
     D          Am
Like love, like love 
D  Am
Oh

[Verse 2]
Em           Bm                C
It's okay to start again cause change is gonna come
Em           Bm                   C
Nothing ever stays the same, it's not like we're still young
      Em             Bm              C
Let's blow it up and burn it down so we can stand alone
   Em                 Bm            C
No fear of change, no fear of the unknown

[Chorus]
G                Bm           C
All my hopes and memories are blowing in the wind
  G                Bm              C
I started off with nothing and I'm back here once again
     Em              Bm
The little things in life are free
     C
The simple things, like you and me
     D          Am
Like love, like love 
     D          Am
Like love, like love 

[Post-Chorus] 
G                  D           Am               D
 The sky above the earth below, fire within me, let it glow (4x)
