[Intro]
Cm Bbsus4
Abadd9 Eb/G
[Verse 1]
Cm Bbsus4
We've been lost for a long time
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm
In a rut, no escape signs
Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
And for love, we were so blind
Cm Bbsus4
Oh, I hate to see you cry
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm
There've been times where the truth lied
Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
Now it's clear as a blue sky
[Pre-Chorus]
Fm Eb Bb/F
Like a bandaid over deeper cuts we tried
Fm Eb Bb/F
But couldn't stop the fate descending on the night
[Chorus]
Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
Abadd9 Eb/G
And hope the spark survives
Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9
Use words as kindling
Eb/G Cm
Light up the night sky
Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
Let the memories take flight
Cm Bbsus4
And hope the spark survives
[Post-Chorus]
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
[Verse 2]
Cm Bbsus4
Oh, I wonder will we pull through?
Abadd9 Eb/G
All we ever do is argue
Cm Bbsus4
With not a lot, but we make do
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4
How I wish you wouldn't say that
Abadd9 Eb/G
There are things you can't take back
Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
When you leave I always face facts
[Pre-Chorus]
Fm Eb Bb/F
Like a hand that's trying to hold the water back
Fm Eb Bb/F
Couldn't stop the ocean leaking in the cracks
[Chorus]
Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
Abadd9 Eb/G
And hope the spark survives
Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9
Use words as kindling
Eb/G Cm
Light up the night sky
Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
Let the memories take flight
Cm Bbsus4
And hope the spark survives
[Post-Chorus]
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
[Interlude]
Gm
We've taken roads
Bb Eb
That led to confusion
Bb F
But right now that don't matter at all
Gm
We'll bring it back
Bb Eb
Our love's no illusion
Bb F
The higher we go, the harder we fall
[Chorus]
Cm
And now
Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
Abadd9 Eb/G
And hope the spark survives
Cm Bbsus4 Abadd9
Use words as kindling
Eb/G Cm
Light up the night sky
Bbsus4 Abadd9 Eb/G
Let the memories take flight
Cm Bbsus4
And hope the spark survives
[Post-Chorus]
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm Bbsus4
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
Abadd9 Eb/G Cm
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
[Outro]
Eb Abadd9 Eb Bb
We've been lost for a long time
In a rut, no escape signs
And for love, we were so blind
Oh, I hate to see you cry
There've been times where the truth lied
Now it's clear as a blue sky
Like a Band-Aid over deeper cuts, we tried
But couldn't stop the fate descending on the night
We'll build a fire
And torch our old life
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling
Light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
Oh, I wonder will we pull through?
All we ever do is argue
With not a lot, but we make do
How I wish you wouldn't say that
There are things you can't take back
When you leave, I always face facts
Like a hand that's trying to hold the water back
We couldn't stop the ocean leaking in the cracks
We'll build a fire
And torch our old life
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling
Light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
We've taken roads (oh, we've taken roads)
That led to confusion
But right now that don't matter at all (nah, nah)
We'll bring it back (yeah, we'll bring it back)
Our love's no illusion
The higher we go, the harder we fall and now
We'll build a fire
And torch our old life
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling
Light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
And we hope the spark survives
