• Capo on 1st

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
 A minorAm                         C majorC
Door clicks while his wheels start spinning on the pavement
  A minorAm                     C majorC
And I go fill the space up where he has been staying
G+G           FF
Won't lose much sleep, he never went that deep
  A minorAm                     C majorC
"Love you," oh, you sweet thing, no, I never said that
 A minorAm                   C majorC
Let me hold your ego while you get your bag packed
 G+G          FF
Don't take this the wrong way
       G+G
But when the spade shows up, I call it by its first name

Chorus:
 FF                A minorAm
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
             G+G
We'd've burned up in the flames
            FF
Long before they ever rose up higher
  FF                 A minorAm
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold, but I do now
     G+G      FF                A minorAm
So I'll know what it feels like when I feel fire, fire


Post-Chorus:
  C majorC
Mmm, fire

Fire


Verse 2:
 A minorAm                          C majorC
Talk, touch, kiss, bend, this one's just like all the others
 A minorAm                 C majorC
And I know all too well that I won't beat the waters
 G+G            FF
I held my breath to swim
 G+G
The shallow shores aren't safe enough to dive in


Chorus:
 FF                A minorAm
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
              G+G
We'd've burned up in the flames
            FF
Long before they ever rose up higher
  FF                 A minorAm
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold, but I do now
     G+G       FF                A minorAm
So I'll know what it feels like when I feel fire, fire

Bridge:
        C majorC
That comes-and-stays fire
        E minorEm
On-blood-and-veins fire
         C majorC
I've only ever wanted fire
 FF
In my chest, in my mouth, on my tongue, in my mind

In my soul, so my lungs can breathe in fire

FF  A minorAm

Chorus:
             G+G
We'd've burned up in the flames
            FF
Long before they ever rose up higher
                   A minorAm
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold, but I do now
     G+G       FF           FF
So I'll know what it feels like when I feel fire, fire
