Intro:
G+G Gmin CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Verse:
G+G Gmin
A augmentedA fire truck goes screaming by
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
And it reminds me of that night
G+G Gmin
When you said that you were coming home
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Then I waited up 'til four in the morning
G+G Gmin
She says, "I remember, and why the fuck
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Would this be a good time to bring that up?"
G+G Gmin
And I am silent, because I'm not sure
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2 D MajorD
Sometimes I feel like I should never speak again
D MajorD A augmentedA Csus2Csus2
She takes my hand and says, "C'mon you know this one's my favourite song"
Interlude:
G+G Gmin CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Verse:
G+G Gmin
And I can see it in my mind
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Those flames reaching so high
G+G Gmin
Into the night, and that poor family
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Standing on the front lawn watching
G+G Gmin
And for some reason, I remember that feeling
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Being almost jealousy
G+G Gmin
For a new beginning, but I should have known
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
That I was already burning it to the ground
D MajorD A augmentedA Csus2Csus2
But now that I'm dancing in the ashes, I just want it to be whole
Interlude:
G+G Gmin CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
Verse:
G+G Gmin
And somehow with all that distraction
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
I still managed to pick a fight
G+G Gmin
When she got home, and all she had were questions
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
About those flashing red lights
G+G Gmin
And now the song is ending, Judy's leaving
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
And I'm getting one more right at last call
G+G Gmin
Claire orders three shots, Charlie raises his up
CsusCsus Csus2Csus2
And we tip our heads back before we say goodnight
D MajorD A augmentedA Csus2Csus2
Now that I'm standing in the ashes I just want it to be whole
D MajorD A augmentedA Csus2Csus2
Now that I'm standing in the ashes I can't help but sing along
