Capo 2nd Fred Intro: Em | D Em D I was born a baby boy a long time ago C Em D Back when the hillsides were green and the water would flow Em D But nights they fall and settle like snow C Em D I watched as the hillsides turned white with nowhere to go C Em Oh think I?m gonna start a fire C Em D Em Oh think I?m gonna start a fire Em D Now my heart?s a frozen lake where streams used to flow C Em D Down to the forest of my mind where memory would grow Em D Now I walk amongst the trees where the last sun glows C Em D The leaves are all golden and brown with nowhere to go C Em Oh think I?m gonna start a fire C Em D Em Oh think I?m gonna start a fire C My skin like these boulders D Is cracking and older G Em With each passing year that goes C My cliff face is crumbling D Silently tumbling G Bm Em Down to the water below C And if I light a match D I?ll be able to catch Bm C The last sun before it goes C Em And oh well I think I?m gonna start a fire C Em Oh think I?m gonna start a fire C Em D And oh think I?m gonna start a fire now Outro : Em D Bm
