The Kill (Bury Me)

Coversong written by Jared Leto originally made famous by 30 Seconds To Mars
Jared Leto described the meaning of the song as, “It’s really about a relationship with yourself. It’s about confronting your fear and confronting the truth about who you are.”

C                     D
What if I wanted to break  
                       Em
Laugh it all off in your face
               Bm
What would you do?
C                     D
What if I fell to the floor
                      Em
Couldn’t take this any…more
               Bm
What would you do?
C              D
Come, Break me down
Bury me, Bury me
Em                 Bm
I am finished With you

C                     D
What if I wanted to fight
                       Em
Beg for the rest of my life
               Bm
What would you do?
C                     D
You say you wanted more
                      Em
What are you waiting for
                Bm
I'm not running from you
C              D
Come, Break me down
Bury me, Bury me
Em                 Bm
I am finished With you
C                D
Look   in   my  eyes   
You’re killing me, killing me
Em               Bm
All I wanted was you

[Bridge]
  C            D      Em
I tried to be someone else
    G                 C
But nothing seemed to change
  D          Em            G        C
I know now, this is who I really am inside
        D        Em
Finally found myself
G              C
Fighting for a chance
  D         Em           C
I know now, this is who I really am
C              D
Come, Break me down
Bury me, Bury me
Em                 Bm
I am finished With you
C                D
Look   in   my  eyes   
You’re killing me, killing me
Em               Bm
All I wanted was you
C                     D
What if I wanted to break  
                       Em
Laugh it all off in your face
