[Verse 1]
DIn the sGame reckless cDity where Agreat AntoniBmo died
On the iGsland in the rivDer with a mAountain at its side
I caGme to scatter aDshes of the bAridges I've Bmburned
And I knGow the nDame of the sAong that I hBmeard
Yeah, I Gknow theD name of theA song I hDeard
[Verse 2]
Like a mGoonlight mathemaDtician I sAubtracted my Bmconcerns
And I muGltiplied my optiDons and diviAded my returns
SacrGificed the aDngel who was tugAging at my shBmirt
I was alGready clDaimed by theA song that IBm heard
Yeah, alGready chDained to the Asong that I Dheard
[Verse 3]
From theG corner of my eyDe I caughtA the shadow oBmf a girl
But my sGhoes were tied tDogether and Amy face was in the dirt
Her Ggentle eyes Dsaid everything Abefore she saBmid a word
And GI knew I wasD changed by the Asong that I hBmeard
Yeah, I Gknew right Daway by the sAong I Dheard
[Verse 4]
In the cGult of desperatiDon he stayAed just behinBmd the curve
And no oGne here admits wDe're gettingA more than we deserve
I waGs born a firDst child, she waAs born a thirBmd
We wGere already Dnamed by the sonAgs that we heBmard
Yeah, alGready claimDed by the sonAgs we Dheard
[Verse 5]
Did I maGke you out at PhDoenix from the Aashes of a Bmbird?
Did we bGuild our pDalace and wAatch it as it burned?
It's kinGd of like a lessDon that haAd to be unleaBmrned
[Verse 6]
Like a fGool maker, DFall-taker, AForsaker, BmHeartbreaker
GEarthquaker, SDoul-shaker, ASoothsayer, BmMoon prayer
GSun slayer, YDeasayer, MAistaker, BmRattlesnaker
We are aGlready Dchanged by the sAongs we Dheard
