Yesterdays Fire

	  		

B 
I can see being with you 
                                   E 
You're got a body I imagine to be like 
                             B 
What I imagine you're been told 

B 
I can see being with you 

Your clothes are great and you wear them loose, 
         E 
And you know 
                                B 
When to hang on and when to let go 

B 
You had a house and you took me there 
                                               E 
I had to notice that the walls were bare and white 
                                B 
Like the ashes of yesterday?s fire 

B 
The bed looked like a butcher?s block, and 
                                    
You liked it better when I was on top 
         E                      B 
And I thought about nothing at all 

            Abm 
You seem alright 
                        E 
A little close to the night 
                B 
But you seem alright 
          F# 
It's inappropriate 
                             B 
But at least the walls are white 

B 
A piece of fool?s gold next to an empty vase; 

I'm too old for you anyway. 
        E 
And I know you?ll disagree 
                                              B 
Because you know that you're pretty when you lie 

B 
Before I go 

I think I should tell you that 

All the stars are dying and 
                            E 
Most of them are already through. 
                                       B 
We're just getting off on yesterday?s fire 

             Abm 
From under a rock, I'm on my way to grace. 
          E 
I have stopped in a thousand houses 
       B 
On my way 

B 
But I never will forget, 

Oh no, I never will forget about 
    Abm 
The way we played The Fall 
                 E 
And broke your plates against the wall 
            B 
As the sun rose 

               F# 
Then we fell asleep in the glass, 
                  B 
And then I had to go 

B 

E    B 
E    B 
Abm  E   B 
Abm  E   B
