Lyrics and Guitar Chords James Bay - When We Were On Fire

Intro -x2-: Am Am7 Am Am

Am       Am7             Am              Am7
Drifting apart, getting hard to hold you

Days getting dark and the nights are growing cold

            F              G
Are we burning out?

Am       Am7             Am             A7 -repeat-
Swept out of sight, rolling up on an ocean

Let's cut all the ropes and get lost in the moment
         F                   G                           
If our hearts are alive, maybe then we might

Am      Am7             G
Send us back to the sun


      F       C
Now I know, I know
           Dm               Am                G
That we're losing light, our love is dying
F              C
Out cold on the floor
       Dm               Am                     G
Like a fallen star that shines no more
F          C  Dm                      A7       G
Take, take-a-me back to where we was before
                F   C        Dm  Am   
When we were on fire,        fire


Am              Am7             Am      Am7 -repeat-
Head down, heading underground feeling wasted
Cold to the bone, so alone I can taste it
        F            G
Let's light it up
Am             Am7             Am      Am7 -repeat-
Streets are alive now, and everything's bracing
You're on my mind, running in my veins fueling the flame
        F            G        Am     Am7 Am
Let's start it again


      F       C
Now I know, I know
           Dm                Am                G
That we're losing light, our love is dying
F             C
Out cold on the floor
       Dm               Am                       G
Like a fallen star that shines no more
F            C  Dm                   Am      
Take, take-a-me back to where we was before
     G          F   C           Dm  Am
When we were on fire,           fire
                F   C           Dm  Am
When we were on fire,           fire


Am       Am7             Am              A7 -repeat-
Oh, oh, whoa, oh, whoa-oh-oh, now don't tell me no
That we're burning down
Oh, oh, whoa, oh, whoa-oh-oh, now don't tell me no
That we're burning now


F         C          Dm7                  Am            G
I know, I know we're losing light and our love is dying
F        C              
Take me, take-a-me home
Dm                  Am         G         F   C     Dm  Am
Back to where we was before when we were on fire,     fire
      F      C
Now I know, I know
           Dm                Am              G
That we're losing light, our love is dying
F               C
Out cold on the floor
       Dm               Am                  G
Like a fallen star that shines no more
F            C  Dm                     Am     G        
Take, take-a-me back to where we was before
                F  C           Dm  Am
When we were on fire,           fire
