  Stop the clocks, it's amazing

  You should see the way the light dances off your head

Pre-Chorus:
        Csus2
We were love drunk, waiting on a miracle
         G                     Dsus2
Tryna to find ourselves in the winter snow
    Csus2                                      G  Dsus4
So alone in love like the world had disappeared
      Csus2
Oh, I won't be silent and I won't let go
       G                        Dsus4
I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow
          Csus2                                         G  Dsus4
And we'll burn so bright 'til the darkness softly clears


Chorus:
           Csus2                   G  Dsus4
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow
           Csus2                   G
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow


Verse 2:
G
  The weather outside's changing
Csus2
  The leaves are buried under six inches of white
Dsus4              Em7         Csus2
  The radio is playing Iron & Wine
G
  This is a new dimension
Csus2
  This is a level where we're losing track of time
Dsus4                   Em7                      Csus2
  I'm holding nothing against it, except you and I


Pre-Chorus:
        Csus2
We were love drunk, waiting on a miracle
          G                     Dsus4
Trying to find ourselves in the winter snow
    Csus2                                      G  Dsus4
So alone in love like the world had disappeared
      Csus2
Oh, I won't be silent and I won't let go
       G                        Dsus4
I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow
          Csus2                                         G  Dsus4
And we'll burn so bright 'til the darkness softly clears

Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow
