Still Burning

Fm             G#
  You are the burning
                   Eb
The flame that is turning
               C#         Fm
My smoldering ash into a bird
                   G#
So stay close my brother
                      Eb
I couldn't stand the loss
              C#
You are the bridge of action

Bbm                Fm
   I need you to help me cross
Bbm               Eb
   I need you to help me

CHORUS:
              G#        G#7+      
So when you break, my arms will 
     C#        Eb
take hold of you
              G#        G#7+   
I know your heart is a hand that 
         C#       Fm   Eb
takes hold of me
