Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 It's the Icarus wind,

 it's blowing in my eyes

 It's the Icarus wind,

 it's telling me those lies

 And its heart is like ice

 its fingers are long

 And it knows just who'll be torn

apart by that windsong

 It's the Icarus wind

 It's the Icarus wind,

blowing through my hair

 It's the Icarus wind

loosening the threads

 And, my God, it will stop you

 right there, dead in your tracks

 If you're just held together

 with hope and candle-wax

 (2x) It's the Icarus wind

 And the higher it pulls me up,

 the hotter it gets

 It's the end of the dream around mid fire

 and cigarettes

 It's the Icarus wind

blowing through my ears

 It's the Icarus wind

dusting away those tears

 Singing, baby the truth is

 that this won't hurt at all

 Soon there'll just be feathers

 and the quiet of the fall

 (3x) It's the Icarus wind
