C#m7 Aadd9 E


Verse:

      C#m7
It's not a silly little moment
       Aadd9      E
It's not the storm before the calm
      C#m7
This is the deep and dying breath of
             Aadd9  E
This love that we've been working on

      C#m7
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
       Aadd9      E
So I can feel you in my arms
      C#m7
Nobody's gonna come and save you
       Aadd9      E
We've pulled too many false alarms


Chorus:

      Badd11
We're going down
      C#m7  Aadd9
And you can see it too
      Badd11
We're going down
    C#m7      F#m11
And you know that we're doomed
  C#m7             Aadd9  E
My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room

Verse:

      C#m7
I was the one you always dreamed of
      Aadd9       E
You were the one I tried to draw
      C#m7
How dare you say it's nothing to me
      Aadd9         E
Baby you're the only light I ever saw

      C#m7
I'll make the most of all the sadness
      Aadd9     E
You'll be a bitch because you can
      C#m7
You try to hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty
      Aadd9  E
Because you can't understand


Chorus:

      Badd11
We're going down
      C#m7  Aadd9
And you can see it too
      Badd11
We're going down
    C#m7      F#m11
And you know that we're doomed

My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room
