[Verse 2]
Can you [C]hear that sound
It's all around you and [F]me[C]
There's a voice
It searched and found you
What can it be?
It's like [F]thunder and lightning
Speaking your name
And [Ab]this man of fire
Could be [Bb]burnt in the flame
You know what you do
What you do-
Chorus You're breaking [Gm]down paradise

[Verse 3]
[Ab]
[F]And I'm[Bb] the one who pays the[C] price
[Gm]Any way I [Ab]play or [F]lose
[Bb]Any way that I throw t[C]he d[Bb]ice
You're breaking [Ab]down [C]paradise
You're [Ab]breaking down paradise

[Ab][C]

[Verse 4]
You [C]walk away
And turned the day
Into night
The cold and lonely night
[F]Out of the silence
There's a hurricane
[Ab]And all around me
It's [Bb]burning again
It's burning again and [Gm]again
[Ab]
