[Verse 1]
        G         F                C
I had a slow burn for you darling
        G              F      C
We were walking by the river
      G           F              C
I was young and a fool, darling
         G          F        C
I didn't know about forever


[Verse 2]
          G        F              
We took a train to Vermont, 
   C
darling
             G         F          
We skied the mountains in the west
  C

            G         F  
And all the while the fire 
              C
smouldered
          G          F         Eb
I felt it burning in my chest


[Verse 3]
        F              C      Eb
We were walking by the ocean
       F            C       Eb
On the coast of California
            F             C
I felt that I should tell you 
something
             F      G        C
But then the moment passed


[Verse 4]
          G          F            
Life went on for us, darling
        C

                        (I was never
 very far)
        G            F            
We went our separate ways
          C

                        (But I had 
to stay away)
       G                 F  
I very seldom thought of you, 
                   C
darling
                                 
(Hard to remember)
             G     F      Eb
The past was all a haze


[Verse 5]
       F              C           
Then I saw you in the city
            Eb

                         (Couldn't 
believe my eyes)
          F          C            
Your eyes lit up and so did mine
                  Eb

                              (There
 was so much to say)
            F             C       
We walked together by the 
          F
reservoir
                              (Hold 
my hand)
                      G      C
And shared a glass of wine


[Verse 6]
            G             F       
The time has passed away, darling
  C

              G         F         
I thought the flame was burning 
    C
out
         G       F               C
I had my life to live, darling
            G         F       Eb
Could I let go of any doubt


[Verse 7]
       F                       C  
When I saw you that day in the 
                 Eb
city
                                 
(Memories floated back)
           F         C            
I suffered such a surprise
            Eb

                        (It all was 
such a surprise)
             F           C        
The fire was lit and the slow burn
          F
 started
             G        C
Had it never died


[Verse 8]
              G          F        
Now there's a slow burn, darling
                     C

                             (Just 
like there'd been before)
       G         F                
Like a sweet and smoky song
      C

                      (A longing in 
our hearts)
           G            F         
And what I didn't know, darling
                  C

                           (Maybe 
this was meant to be)
              G        F
Was that your love was never gone
