🎸 Intro:

Eb  Bb  Cm  Ab


🎸 Verse 1:
Eb
Can't even begin to explain
   Bb
This all too well familiar pain
  Cm
It comes and it goes
                  Ab
But it gets in my bones all the same, ooh-ooh

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
   Cm
Well, maybe I'm a fool
    Ab
For falling in love with you
    Eb             Bb
When I  had nothing left to lose
   Cm
And nothing more I could give
     Ab
Went down with your sinking ship
   Eb                 Bb
Now I  don't think I'll make it through   Through

🎸 Chorus:
Eb
  Now it's only the beat of my heart
Cm
  That reminds me not to stare at the sparks
Ab
  Can't set fire to my soul just to
Bb
Keep ya, keep ya, keep ya from burning alone

Eb
  'Cause, the longer you convince me to stay
Cm
  Our salvation's slipping further away
Ab
  Can't set fire to my soul just to
Bb
Keep ya, keep ya, keep ya from burning alone


Eb


🎸 Verse 2:
    Eb
Forget evеrything we've come to еxpect
    Bb
It only serves to further fuck with our heads
       Cm
And I don't wanna pretend
                  Bb
This will all be alright in the end
ooh-ooh


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
  Cm            Ab
So maybe, now, instead of balancing on the edge
     Eb             Bb
We could  put this to bed for good
  Cm              Ab
Can call it quits or risk sinking with this broken ship
   Eb                  Bb
But I  don't think we'd make it through    Through


🎸 Chorus:
Eb
  Now it's only the beat of my heart
Cm
  That reminds me not to stare at the sparks
Ab
  Can't set fire to my soul just to
Bb
Keep ya, keep ya, keep ya from burning alone

Eb
  'Cause, the longer you convince me to stay
Cm
  Our salvation's slipping further away
Ab
  Can't set fire to my soul just to
Bb
Keep ya, keep ya, keep ya from burning alone


🎸 Bridge:
Cm
  I wish I could stay
Ab
  I wish I could lie
Eb           Bb
  Do whatever it takes to get you through the night
Cm
  I can't be the one
Ab
  I can't take the fall
Eb             Bb
  Can't go up in the flames to keep your body warm


🎸 Chorus:
Eb
  Now it's only the beat of my heart
Cm
  That reminds me not to stare at the sparks
Ab
  Can't set fire to my soul just to
Bb
Keep ya, keep ya, keep ya from burning alone

Eb
  'Cause, the longer you convince me to stay
Cm
  Our salvation's slipping further away
Ab
  Can't set fire to my soul just to
Bb
Keep ya, keep ya, keep ya from burning alone
