[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
       Yeah,
                 Cm Bbsus4
we hope the spark   survives
Abadd9 Eb/G                   Cm
       Yeah, we hope the spark  survives

[Outro]
Eb Abadd9 Eb Bb
