Verse 1
First star out and we're already there
Hill we came to with nothin' to spare
No phones high, no light pollution
Just the gang of us and a small revolution
Stacked the wood the way Daddy taught
Watched it catch the way kids never thought
Shadows long and the sky pulled wide
Whole life kinda fits on a hillside
Pre-Chorus
Don't need a stage to feel alive
Don't need a screen to feel the night thrive
Just a flame and the folks I came for
Lit up under the same wide door —
Chorus
Burn it down
Burn it down
Whole damn week dissolves to ash
Burn it down
Burn it down
Friday turning every story past
Burn it down
Burn it down
Hands held high to the gold-light spray
Burn it down
Burn it down
We're the bright spot in the whole damn day
Verse 2
Caught a face I hadn't seen for years
Caught a song we made when we were kids
Sky went silver where the smoke went up
Hand around a mug instead of a cup
Nobody filmin', nobody scrollin'
Whole crowd locked in, the embers rollin'
Time stopped countin' 'round the eighth song sung
And we were laughin' like we were young
Pre-Chorus
Don't need a hit to feel like one
Don't need a clock to feel the run
Just a flame and the folks I came for
Lit up under the same wide door —
Chorus
Burn it down
Burn it down
Whole damn week dissolves to ash
Burn it down
Burn it down
Friday turning every story past
Burn it down
Burn it down
Hands held high to the gold-light spray
Burn it down
Burn it down
We're the bright spot in the whole damn day
Bridge
We don't need much
We don't need stuff
We just need the spark and a few good ones
And a sky big enough
So throw your arms up, let 'em fly
We're the only thing burning under this sky
Pass the heat, pass the light
Tonight is the only Friday tonight
Final Chorus — full band, gang vocals, big lift
Burn it down
Burn it down
Whole damn week dissolves to ash
Burn it down
Burn it down
Friday turning every story past
Burn it down
Burn it down
Hands held high to the gold-light spray
Burn it down
Burn it down
We're the bright spot in the whole damn day
Outro
Burn it down, burn it down
Burn it down, burn it down
Sky's our roof and the hill's our ground
Yeah we came up here to burn it down

Raw note map (experimental)
This is the unfiltered pitch detection across the whole mix — vocals, bass and drums included — mapped onto a fretboard. It is not a playable arrangement and no one should try to read it as one. It is here only because it is the raw material everything else was built from.
Download note mapA lead sheet, not a full score. The melody line has been reduced automatically from the recording and paired with the detected chords. Expect the shape of the tune to be right and the details to be approximate.
