Intro: G  C 

  G                               C 
Oh I miss the comfort of this house. 
                     G 
Where we are, where we are, 
               C 
Where we are, where we are. 
G                                  C 
The floor under our feet whispers out: 
                     G 
'Come on in, come on in, 
             C (let ring) 
where it all begins.' 

           G                 C 
Can you chase this fire away? 
           G                 C 
Can you chase this fire away? 

    G                                  C 
We climbed up to the top in worn out shoes, 
                  G 
But she ran down, she ran down, 
                    C 
She ran down to the house. 
     G                                  C 
A fox that gains our trust but then breaks it as he walks 
          G                C 
away from us, away from us. 

           G                 C 
Can you chase this fire away? 
          G                  C 
Can you chase this fire away? 
        Em          C        G 
In the fall we sleep all day. 
        Em          C        G 
In the fall we sleep all day. 
           G            C 
Where we are, where we are. 
          G              C 
Where we are, where we are. 

           G                 C 
Can you chase this fire away? 
          G                  C 
Can you chase this fire away? 
        Em          C        G 
In the fall we sleep all day. 
        Em          C        G 
In the fall we sleep all day.
