Verse
G5 C5
She's moving like a forest fire
G5 D5
Leaving no path unscathed
G5 C5
Too young to be as jaded as I
G5 D5
But old enough to feel the strain
G5 C5
I hope that I can hold on to
G5 D5
The beauty that I'll never match
G5 C5
That never-ending open wound
G5 D5
That started from a simple scratch
Chorus
C5 G5 D5 C5
I want to save us from being saved
C5 G5 D5 C5
Before we get too old and waste away
C5 G5 D5 A5 C5
Like some lovers destined to die young
And so through all the loss we've seen
Of friends who sit and think too much
Too fragile for the cold outside
Too proud to say what's on their minds
This is for the broken fools
Whose flames are gone before their time
And if you see me trip an fall
Save me from a swift decline
I want to sink beneath a drunken sea
Look into your eyes when you take the breath from me
There's always something to live for
