Capo 2nd Fret
Am F/C
So let me hammer this point home:
Am C
I see us all as lonely fires
F/C C C Em7
that have burned alive as long as we remember.
Am C
But like all fireworks and all sunsets,
F/C Am
we all burn in different ways:
F/C C
You are a fast explosion,
Em7
and I am the embers.
F/C Am
And though your flames are quick and mean,
C F/C
they will not last the year,
C C F/C
but expire like a sudden falling star,
F/C Am
that only nightingales had seen,
F/C Am
before migrating to southern jungles.
F/C C C Em7
And in this way you will come find me in December. Whoa ho ho.
Am F/C
He said he'd like to move to Nashville
Am C
to master the guitar,
F/C C
where he would live a single day
C Em7
the way I live a single year.
Am C
He covered his body in mud,
F/C Am
went hunting for the sun,
F/C
and then went swimming
C Em7
in a lake of holy water.
F/C Am
You are too hot for me.
C F/C
I am too slow for you.
C C
You are a fast explosion
F/C
and I am the embers.
F/C Am
You need the one who slowly burns,
F/C Am
and burns to stay alive.
F/C C C
In this way you will come find me in December
Solo part but same guitar riffs
Am F/C
So let me hammer this point home:
Am C
I see us all as lonely fires
F/C C C Em7
that have burned alive as long as we remember.
Am C
But like all sacrificial virgins,
F/C Am
we all burn in different ways:
F/C C
You are a fast explosion,
Em7
and I am the embers.
F/C Am
And though your flames are quick and mean,
C F/C
they will not last the year,
C C F/C
but expire like a sudden shooting star,
F/C Am
that only nightingales had seen,
F/C Am
before transforming into bluebirds.
F/C C C
And in this way you will come find me in December.
