Yellow Flicker Beat

      Em
I'm a princess cut from marble
                Am
Smoother than a storm
        D
And the scars that mark my body
                   Em
They're silver and gold
   Bm
My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones
   Am
It keeps my veins hot
                          Em
The fire's found a home in me
                                      Am
I move through town, I'm quiet like a fire
       Em
And my necklace is of rope
             Bm
I tie it and untie
    Em
And now people talk to me but nothing ever hits home
Am                                             D
People talk to me and all the voices just burn holes
                   Em
I'll done with it, oh
                                Bm
This is the start of how it all ends
                                             D
They used to shout my name, now they whisper it
                                 Bm                         D
I'm speeding up, and this is the red, orange yellow flicker beat
               Em
Sparking up my heart
Em                                  Bm
We're at the start, the colours disappear
                                              D
I never watch the stars, there's so much down here
Bm                                                        D
So I just try keep up with the red, orange yellow flicker beat
                  Em
Sparking up my heart
Em                                         Am
I dream all year but they're not the sweet kind
        Em
And the shivers move down my shoulder
                 D
Blades in double time
        Em
And now people talk to me,  I'm slipping out of reach now
Am
People talk to me and all their faces blur
             Em
But I got my fingers laced together and I made a little prison
        Am
And I'm locking up everyone who ever laid a finger on me
                   Em
I'll done with it, oh
                                Bm
This is the start of how it all ends
                                             D
They used to shout my name, now they whisper it
                                 Bm                         D
I'm speeding up, and this is the red, orange yellow flicker beat
               Em
Sparking up my heart
Em                                  Bm
We're at the start, the colours disappear
                                              D
I never watch the stars, there's so much down here
Bm                                                        D
So I just try keep up with the red, orange yellow flicker beat
                  Em
Sparking up my heart
                Bm                         D
And this is the red, orange yellow flicker beat
               Em
Sparking up my heart
                Bm                         D
And this is the red, orange yellow flicker beat
                   Em
Beat, beat, beat
