1. He said, I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down, I'm gonna put it six feet underground. He said, I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall, stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls. 2. Oh, I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire, stand here until I fill all your heart’s desires. Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn, do back the things it did to you in return. 3. He said, I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war, if you can tell me something worth fighting for. Oh, and I'm gonna buy this place is what I said, blame it upon a rush of blood to the head. Honey! All the movements have started to make, see me crumble and fall on my face. And I know the mistakes that I've made, see it all disappear without trace. And they call as they beckon you on, they said, start as you need to go on. 4. He said, I'm gonna buy this place and see it go, stand here beside me, baby, watch the orange glow. Some will laugh and some just sit and cry, but you just sit down there and you wonder why. 5. So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war, if you can tell me something worth fighting for. And I'm gonna buy this place, is what I said, blame it upon a rush of blood to the head, oh, to the head. + CHORUS + So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lake, when am I going to see that pretty face again? Meet me on the road, meet me where I stand, blame it all upon a rush of blood to the head.
