Capo: 1st fret

INTRO:
G    Cadd9    D    G
 
VERSE:
            G
First cool snap of fall in the air
        Cadd9
We been waitin' on it all damn year
            D
Drag out a Carhartt and a chair
               G
Let's build a fire
 
               G
Shoulder pads crackin' on a high-school field
        Cadd9
Openin' day is on our heels
       D
God I love how Friday night feels
               G
Let's build a fire
 
 
CHORUS:
               G
Let's build a fire let's crank it on up
              Cadd9
Pour a little diesel in my cup
                   D
I'm fixin' toss it on y'all better back up
               G
Let's build a fire
 
                   G
You can't burn it down in the neighbourhood
             Cadd9
But it's all good back in the backwoods
         D
Let the good time just transpire
               G    G
Let's build a fire
 
 
VERSE:
         G
We been talkin' 'bout it since July
          Cadd9
Temp done dropped down to forty-five
            D
Think it's time we take it higher
               G
Let's build a fire
 
               G
Comе a little closer if you can
                Cadd9
Put your little hеart in my hand
        D
Turn me on like an amplifier
               G
Let's build a fire
 
 
CHORUS:
               G
Let's build a fire let's crank it on up
              Cadd9
Pour a little diesel in my cup
                   D
I'm fixin' toss it on y'all better back up
               G
Let's build a fire
 
                   G
You can't burn it down in the neighbourhood
             Cadd9
But it's all good back in the backwoods
         D
Let the good time just transpire
               G
Let's build a fire
 
    G
Ah here we go!

Let's build a fire let's light it on up
              Cadd9
Pour a little diesel in a Sonic cup
                   D
I'm fixin' toss it on y'all better back up (y'all better back up)
 
                   G
You can't burn it down in the neighbourhood
             Cadd9

to see the lyrics Let's Build A Fire
              Some days where I ain't myself
And the leaves are all yellow
There's something in the breeze
Gonna save my life, feels like home, but I ain't alone
Cast my sails and we'll head, till we can't turn back
We're drifting now, can't hold me down
A thousand tales of broken hearts play inside my head
Heavy on my shoulders, we're all getting older

If you feel the weight, just let it go
Like a kid in the rain you can lose control
How the waves, they come and go
They'll be highs, they'll be lows
Where the flowers grow

These diamond hands, won't let you go
No, I could never be alone
This lonely world can crush your soul
Let's share a cigarette and take the long way home
Only time will tell if it's this heaven or hell
So let's lay in bed with the sun in our hair
A thousand tales of broken hearts
Play inside my head over and over

If you feel the weight, just let it go
Like a kid in the rain you can lose control
How the waves, they come and go
They'll be highs, they'll be lows
Where the flowers grow

A little bit of faith for ya
Can carry me the way forward

If you feel the weight, just let it go
Like a kid in the rain you can lose control
How the waves, they come and go
They'll be highs, they'll be lows
Where the flowers grow

Flowers grow
Flowers grow
Flowers grow

It's tearing me up, it's turning me over
I'm telling you now, we'll be laughing in October
A little bit of faith for ya, will carry me the way forward
A little bit of faith for ya, will carry me away to ya
