*Now here are the chords played throughout


[Verse 1]

          Em
When the words 
  D                 C      D
Weigh heavy on the heart
      Em
I am lost 
     D                C     D
And led only by the stars


[Pre-Chorus]

                  C
Cage me like an animal
                       D
A crown with gems and gold
                 C
Eat me like a cannibal
                 D
Chase the neon throne


[Chorus]

        Em               D
Breathe in, breathe out
               C
Let the human in
        Em               D
Breathe in, breathe out
            C
And let it in
         Em                    D
Plants awoke and they slowly grow
             C
Beneath the skin
           Em               D
So breathe in, breathe out
               C
Let the human in


[Verse 2]

    Em      D
The air is silk
                C    D
Shadows form a grin
      Em     D
If I lose control
                   C     D
I feed the beast within


[Pre-Chorus]

                  C
Cage me like an animal
                       D
A crown with gems and gold
                 C
Eat me like a cannibal
                 D
Chase the neon throne


[Chorus]

        Em               D
Breathe in, breathe out
               C
Let the human in
        Em               D
Breathe in, breathe out
            C
And let it in
         Em                    D
Plants awoke and they slowly grow
             C
Beneath the skin
           Em               D
So breathe in, breathe out
               C
Let the human in

[Outro]

                  C
Cage me like an animal
                       D
A crown with gems and gold
                 C
Eat me like a cannibal
                 D
Chase the neon throne
                    Em
If I could only let go
