Intro: Em(hold)


Verse 1:
Em(hold)
  I was born and I
    D
died And just a
C             Em
moment went by  I was
a son and a brother
D             C
  I stand out over the
     Em
water  Waves crashed
            D
on the shore This is
    C              Em  D C
the day that I was born


Chorus 1:
Em       D
  I burn on I burn
C
on Autumn cold
           Em
beneath my feet
       D         C
I burn on I burn on
Walked through the
               Em
city while it sleeps
       D
I burn on I burn
C
on This is the day
           Em  D C
that I was born


Verse 2:
Em        D
  Caught snowflakes
      C
on my tongue
I thought I knew
what love was
Em           D
  A thousand push
          C
pins in a map
Only to prove
         Em
I could exist
      D
Don't hold
       C
on too hard
To the way that
           Em D C
everything was


Chorus 2:
Em       D
  I burn on
       C
I burn on
Endless summer
      Em
in my heart
       D
I burn on
       C
I burn on
I'm not afraid
         Em
to fall apart
       D
I burn on
       C
I burn on
This is the day
           Em  D C
that I was born


Bridge:
G                 C
  And my eyes are fading
G
  Half lives filled on
D
hand written pages
Em               C
  She's already sleeping
G
I'll just lay here and
D
listen to her breathing


Interlude: Em-D-C-- x2


Outro:
Em D C
   Oh Autumn cold
           Em
beneath my feet
D C
Oh Endless summer
      Em
in my heart
D C
Oh This is the day
           Em  D C
that I was born
Em      D
  I was born and I died
C                          C(hold)
  And just a moment went by
