GAnd here lies a pretty state again
Cmaj7It's time to make a move onA  
Cos in  - Emthree days I'll be Dout of here
And it's  - not a day too Cmaj7soon
[Verse 2]
EmFirelight, the light of love, burns
Cmaj7Turns to ashes in your hand
EmSo to bed by the morning light I guess
Cmaj7I'm awake and understand
