F A7 G6 F
[Verse 1]
F Am7 G6 F
An hour in real time passes like the second on a broken clock
F Am7 G6 F
I stay in bed all day, I just realised this will be the third on the trot
F Am7 G6 F
I set the foundation for a life I don't know how to build
F Am7 G6 F
And I take a step backwards and I fall down the same old hills
[Verse 2]
Am7
And I hope that you'll return to me
G6 F
It's mighty lonely on my own in the city
Am7
And I hope I'll find some better company
G6 F
Where they are willing to be caring for my pity
Am7
And I do not want to wake up to the shame
G6 F
But I'm far too tired for these games
Am7
We will bury this with all our memories
G6
Right beside the last love that took it all away
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am7
And oh, and as sweet as you were
G6 F
You turned out to be fools gold in the dark dirt
Am7
And you raced, through the house
G6 F
Whirlwind tearing everything to the cold ground
Am7
And your words, through the phone
G6 F
Force the skin off right of my white bones
Am7 G6 F
And I lay, surrounded by these thoughts
[Chorus]
Am7 G6
And our tiny fires, I swear they'll burn someday
C F
And I want them wild and in some place it never rains
F Am7
Cus we belong, deep inside the blaze
G6 F
Just like we did back in our early days
[Verse 3]
F Am7 G6 F
I move in straight lines and I follow cats eyes beside the road
F Am7 G6 F
I know directions but where they take me we'll never know
F Am7 G6 F
Please fire a flare so I know that you're out there
F Am7 G6 F
Safe and sound, with a beacon over your head
[Verse 4]
Am7
And I hope that you are missing me
G6 F
I feel it too and alone in the country
Am7
I miss the sirens and song repeats
G6 F
Late nights that I wish I could remember
Am7
I'd do anything I can to make you stay
G6 F
But your mind has made you leave anyway
Am7
And sure hope your trains delayed
G6
'Cus there's so much more I need to say and
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am7
And oh, and as sweet as you were
G6 F
You turned out to be fools gold in the dark dirt
Am7
And you raced, through the house
G6 F
Whirlwind tearing everything to the cold ground
Am7
And your words, through the phone
G6 F
Force the skin off right of my white bones
Am7 G6 F
And I lay, surrounded by these thoughts
[Chorus]
Am7 G6
And our tiny fires, I swear they'll burn someday
C F
And I want them wild and in some place it never rains
F Am7
Cus we belong, deep inside the blaze
G6 F
Just like we did back in our early days
[Bridge]
F Am7 G6
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh ohh
F Am7 G6
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh ohh
F Am7 G6
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh ohh
F Am7 G6
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh ohh
[Chorus]
F Am7
And our tiny fires, I swear they'll burn someday
G6 F
And I want them wild and in some place it never rains
F Am7
Cus we belong, deep inside the blaze
G6 F
Just like we did back in our early days
