Intro:
[C Csus2 Am Csus2] x2

Verse 1:

C (x32010@1)                          Csus2The (x35533@1)candles on the table lit you up,
      Am (x02210@1)             Csus2 (x35533@1)  
And I wondered if we'd done enough.
    C (x32010@1)                             Csus2The (x35533@1)blackout came to slow down everyone
       Am (x02210@1)                      Csus2And (x35533@1)it spoke to us, said "you've had your fun".

Verse 2:

C (x32010@1)                            Csus2The (x35533@1)autumn in your eyes, it lit me up.
        Am (x02210@1)                    Csus2I (x35533@1)was a fallen leaf, you were a firework.
     C (x32010@1)                             Csus2When (x35533@1)winter came, I tried to keep us warm
         Am (x02210@1)                     Csus2 (x35533@1)  
At least warmer than... than we'd been before.

Chorus:

F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2 (x35533@1)      F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2On (x35533@1)our way back home, on our way back home.
       F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2 (x35533@1)      F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2On (x35533@1)our way back home, on our way back home.

Verse 3:

C (x32010@1)                                Csus2I (x35533@1)pulled you close to me and soon forgot
            Am (x02210@1)                      Csus2 (x35533@1)  
About those heavy hearts, about those other ones.
    C (x32010@1)                             Csus2The (x35533@1)blackout came to slow down everything
          Am (x02210@1)                       Csus2That (x35533@1)we'd come to know, we still had songs to sing.

Chorus:

F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2 (x35533@1)      F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2On (x35533@1)our way back home, on our way back home.
       F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2 (x35533@1)      F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)  Csus2On (x35533@1)our way back home, on our way back home.
