🎸 Verse:
           G                          GM7
The air is visible around you, rising up and off your lips
        G7                            Cadd9
In slow currents, and I watch as your face is framed in its
     G                  GM7
Slow currents, drifting curls, a trailing path
   G7                  Cadd9                  G
A long drag becomes a tress of blue and ash

🎸 Chorus:
                 Cadd9                         Em7
If it is born in flames, then we should let it burn

Burn as brightly as we can
                   Cadd9                   Em7
And if it’s got to end, then let it end in flames

Let it burn all the way down

           G
The air is visceral around us
        GM7                         G7
Turning in its simple steps on slow currents
                  Cadd9                   G    GM7     G7
And I watch as it pirouettes and spins in slow motion
                     Cadd9        Em7
A long drag becomes a slow dance
         Cadd9       G
In a halo of ember
