f#m               D
so let me hammer this point home
         f#m           E
i see us all as lonely fires
          D                A         E      E/F
that have burned alive as long as we remember

 
         f#m               E
like all fireworks and all sunsets,
       D                 f#m
we all burn in different ways
    D          A                      C#
you are a vast explosion and I am the embers


                bm                   f#m
and though your flames are quick and mean(?),
     c#m             D
they will not last a year
     A            E              D
but expire like a sudden falling star,

          D                f#m
that only nightingales had seen before
      D                    f#m
by creating two southern jungles

            D                 E           A
and in this way you will come find me in december
