I couldn't find a tab or chords for this incredible song of KT's new album,

[Verse 1]
Hold your Bmfire
I'm coming Dout and I'll Etell you the Bmtruth
I was Dtrying to Eraise my Bmroof
Did you Asee it
That I Gneeded Ato Bmprove
That my Dstinger Ealways Bmstays
You said she's Dbeautiful Ewhen she Bmplays
Did I Dhit you in the Eproper Aplace
   ASuddenly
[Chorus 1]
GI, oh well AI could live in this F#mtown
Five Gcold years before I
Yes AI could live in this F#mtown
GBefore I head for home
 Bm   D   E(2x)
[Verse 2]
It's my Bmturn
With the Dspotlight Eburning a Bmhole
But my Dbird-heart's Eturning Bmcold
As the Atemperature Grises Aall Bmaround
To the Dsound of a Eticking Bmbomb
And then it's Dnot just Eshowing off Bmhere
You know Dthere's Esomething going Aon here
Going Aon here
Suddenly
[Chorus 2]
GI, oh well AI could live in this F#mtown
Five Gcold years before I
Yes AI could live in this F#mtown
GFive cold years
Yes AI could live in this F#mtown
Five cGold years before I
Well AI could live in this F#mtown
GBefore I head for home

And considered it odd
That I ever Bmstayed

That I ever Bmstayed

That I ever Bmstayed

That I ever Bmstayed
ever Astayed
You know that Bmfeeling you get
when you Edon't want to Dleave
That Bmfeeling you get
when you Edon't want to Dleave
That Bmfeeling when you don't want to leave
    BmSuddenly
[Chorus 3]
GI, oh well AI could live in this F#mtown

[Verse 1]

Hold your fire

D E Bm

I'm coming out and I'll tell you the truth

D E Bm

I was trying to raise my roof

Did you see it

G A Bm

That I needed to prove

D E Bm

That my stinger always stays

D E Bm

You said she's beautiful when she plays

D E A

Did I hit you in the proper place

Suddenly

[Chorus 1]

G A F#m

I, oh well I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

A F#m

Yes I could live in this town

Before I head for home

Bm D E

(2x)

[Verse 2]

It's my turn

D E Bm

With the spotlight burning a hole

D E Bm

But my bird-heart's turning cold

A G A Bm

As the temperature rises all around

D E Bm

To the sound of a ticking bomb

D E Bm

And then it's not just showing off here

D E A

You know there's something going on here

Going on here

Suddenly

[Chorus 2]

G A F#m

I, oh well I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years

A F#m

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

A F#m

Well I could live in this town

Before I head for home

[Bridge]

And considered it odd

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

You know that feeling you get

E D

when you don't want to leave

That feeling you get

E D

when you don't want to leave

That feeling when you don't want to leave

Suddenly

[Chorus 3]

G A F#m

I, oh well I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

A F#m

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years

A F#m

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

A F#m

Well I could live in this town

[Outro]

G A F#m G

Uummannaq

G A F#m G

Before I head for home
