Em                  G                       E
Welcome back to the city at the edge of the world
Em                  G                   E
Welcome back to the city of the plastic girl
Em                  G                        E
Welcome back to the fight you're perpetually in
Em                  G                  E
Welcome back to the war that you can't win
                      Em        
Oh you're breaking my heart
G               E
    Your bloodline
                      Em        
Oh you're breaking my heart
G               E
    Your bloodline

[Chorus]
                      D          A       E
I want to break these bloodlines
                    D          A        E
These narrow-minded confines 
                        Bm     A       C#m
Are you dead and lonely inside
      A              B        
Then break free from this imitation life

[Instrumental]
E5 Em E5 E x2

[Verse 2]
Em                 G   
I want a hope that can't be killed
       A                     E      
With a hammer and nails on Jerusalem hills
Em                 G
I want a hope that can't be killed
        A                  E
By your death, TV, and the boot camp drills
Em                    G
Oh you're breaking my heart
E                     G
   You're breaking my heart
Em                  G                       E
Welcome back to the city at the edge of the world

[Chorus]
                      D          A       E
I want to break these bloodlines
                    D          A        E
These narrow-minded confines 
                        Bm     A       C#m
Are you dead and lonely inside         Alive
      A              B        
Break free from this imitation life

[Bridge]
A
All this time
B
All this time
A
Finding lies
B              E
Black as night

[Chorus]
                      D          A       E
       Break the bloodline
                    D          A        E
These narrow-minded confines 
                        Bm     A       C#m
Are you dead and lonely inside
      A              B        
Then break free from this imitation life

[Outro]
E                   C       D
Are you sick of the headlines 
E              C        D
Then break the bloodlines
