               Am                                                       C
He said, I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
Em7                                            Am
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
               Am                                                         C
He said, I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Em7                                                                    Am
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls

Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
Do back the things it did to you in return

     F         Fsus2
Ah ah ah ah [x2]

Verse
He said, I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Oh and I'm gonna buy this place, is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head

Am

[Chorus}

      F                                                                  D7
Honey, All the movements you're starting to make
(D7)                                              F
See me crumble and fall on my face
(F)                                               D7
And I know the mistakes that I made
(D7)    Bb                               F
See it all disappear without trace
(F)                                                   D7
And they call as they beckon you on
(D7)         Bb                                    Am
They say start as you mean to go on
(Am)    C     Em7                                      Am (back into verse chords again)
                       Start as you mean to go on

Verse
He said, I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me baby, watch the orange glow
Some will laugh and some just sit and cry
But you just sit down there and you wonder why

So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
And I'm gonna buy this place, is what I said
Em7                                                      Am
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
(Am)        
Oh to the head

[Chorus}

      F                                                                  D7
Honey, All the movements you're starting to make
(D7)                                              F
See me crumble and fall on my face
(F)                                               D7
And I know the mistakes that I made
(D7)    Bb                               F
See it all disappear without trace
(F)                                                   D7
And they call as they beckon you on
(D7)         Bb                                    Am
They say start as you mean to go on
(Am)    C     Em7                                      Am
                       Start as you mean to go on

                                Am
So meet me by the bridge
                                 C
Oh meet me by the lane
                                  Em7
When am I going to see
                              Am
That pretty face again?

                           Am
Meet me on the road
                              C
Meet me where I said
                      Em7
Blame it all upon
                                      Am
A rush of blood to the head
