Verse 1:
Em                           B
Oh my precious ember burning my sweet glowing light
C                               B
From the moment I first saw you I was yours and you were mine
Em                              B
Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design
C                                 B
And the echo of my mother's words baby don't you play with fire

Em    D                        Em         D
I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark
Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind

Chorus:
           Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire
           Em                C
No turning back no where to run
            D          B
No where to hide it's too late to say goodbye
Em                  C                  D               B
Push back from my heart wish we could go back to the start
          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time
         B
it's too late it's too late to say goodbye


Verse 2:
Em                              B
I can hear the sounds of sirens circling around
C                                   B
Forced to watch the ashes floating, softly drifting to the ground
Em                            B
Deep down we both knew it was trouble by design
C                                   B
And the echo of my mother's words, "baby don't you play with fire."
Em    D                        Em         D
I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark
Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind


Chorus:
           Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire
           Em                C
No turning back no where to run
            D          B
No where to hide it's too late to say goodbye
Em                  C                  D               B
Push back from my heart wish we could go back to the start
          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time
         B
it's too late it's too late to say goodbye


Instrumental:
Em C D B x2


Bridge:
C             D                 B             C
After all the dust has settled, we can settle down
C               D           B           C
Just the two of us forever, no one else around
B           C      B
No one else around aroooound


Chorus:
           Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire
           Em                C
No turning back no where to run
            D          B
No where to hide it's too late to say goodbye
Em                  C                  D               B
Push back from my heart wish we could go back to the start
          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time
         B
it's too late it's too late to say goodbye
