Twenty One Pilots - A Car A Torch A Death

[Verse]
C CThe air begins to feel a little thin
Bm GAs I start the car and then I begin
C CTo add the miles piled up behind me
Bm GI barely feel a smile deep inside me
 
C CAnd I begin to envy the headlights driving south
Bm GI want to crack the door so I can just fall out
C CBut then I remember when you packed my car
Bm GYou reached in the back and bucked up your heart
C C Bm GFor me to drive away with
 
 
[Chorus]
C C BmI began to understand
G CWhy God died
 
C C Bm G[2x]
 
 
[Verse]
C CThe demon sat there waiting on her porch
Bm GIt was a little dark so we held a makeshift torch
C CAnd when my car was far out of sight
Bm GHe crept in her room and stayed there for the night
 
CAnd then I felt chills in my bones
CThe breath I saw was not my own
BmI knew my skin that wrapped my frame
GWasn't made to play this game
CAnd then I saw Him, torch in hand
CHe laid it out, what he had planned
BmAnd then I said, I'll take the grave
GPlease, just send them all my way
[2x]
 
C C Bm G
 
 
[Chorus]
C C BmI began to understand
GWhy God died
 
C C Bm G[2x]
 
 
[Outro]
C CThe air begins to feel a little thin
Bm GAs we're waiting for the morning to begin
C CBut for now you told me to hold this jar
BmAnd when I looked inside, I saw
GIt held your heart
 
C C Bm GFor me to walk away with
C C BmI began to understand
GWhy God died
