Verse 1:
  G        A   D        G
Oh, light a candle's fire, carries our good name
        G      A   D         G
What would you ask a campfire, it scares me just the same
  G            A    D        G
And you, you've had it all along, an endless need for games
       G        A    D      G
Just don't forget, a candle's fire is only just a flame

G A D G


Verse 2:
G          A  D         G
I hit certain from afar, failed to pull my weight
       G               A    D         G
But you were light, we traveled through the fall to arrive at our front gate
 G            A    D        G
Tonight we rest beside the fire, a smile upon your face
       G        A    D      G
Just don't forget, a candle's fire is only just a flame

G G D D


Chorus:
Em     A       D       G
  If I had known that to carry on that way
Em       A      D        G
  It wouldn't show in the creases on your face
Em        A       D      G
  If you should go, would you carry on my name?
Em       A      D        G
  Just let it blow in the fog of Bishop's Lane
