Watch that old fire as it flickers and dies
That once blessed the household and lit up our lives
It shone for the friends and the clinking of glasses
Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
Am G Am
Capture the wild things and bring them in line
C D
And own what was never your right to confine
C D Am G
The lives and the loves and the songs are what matters
Am G Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
Am G Am
Do you feel heavy? Your eyes drop with grief
C D
Your spirit is wild and your suffering is brief
C D Am G
So never you buckle and bend to the masses
Am G Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
Am G Am
Get round the fire with a glass of strong ale
C D
And tell us a story from beyond the pale
C D Am G
Bury some seeds and expect some strong branches
Am G Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
Am G Am
Now show me a man that can meet all his needs
C D
For what we need most now is unity's seed
C D Am G
A common old song for all creeds and all classes
Am G Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
F E
I'll tend to the flame
( Am )
Am G Am
What will we do when the world it is ending
C D
And time it is halted for friend and for foe?
C D Am G
Try to hold on to the time as it passes
Am G Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
Am G Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
Am
I'll tend to the flame, you can worship the ashes
