He plays F - 033211

Intro : C, F, C, F

C	              F         C
First you burned your own house down
F	                G      C
Then you sold the ashes to the clown
F                G         C       Am
Who painted his brow with thunderclouds
           F                  G
And pulled flowers out of his mouth


C		     F           C
Then you grabbed the bouquet and flew
F		G		      C
From everything that asked to much of you
F		     G	 	   C	      Am
But the future gives birth to both sorrow and mirth
         F	       	        G
It don't matter what you say or do

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/simon_joyner/the_arsonist_crd.html ]
C			F    C
And now, you pray for a dry canteen
           F	   G		C
So you can dare an empty sky to rain
         F          G         C     Am
Then you shake your fist, you can't resist
F		       G
Does anybody feel your pain?
       F             G		    C		
You're alone and you can't go home again


F	      G	                   C       F
They look for you in the leaves of magazines,
C		F	C		F		G
In picaresque stories, in penny arcade portraits of Lauren Bacall
C	      G	                   C         F
While I look for you in the dye of canceled stamps,
C		F		C		F        G
In the panic of sirens, in the vanishing kite strings of airplane exhaust
F		G	C
But nobody can catch the arsonist

Enjoy.
