F#m Bbm7+
Eb Abm E7 Dm Bbm
Eb Abm E7
We go to bed and you fall asleep, fall asleep, not me,
Dm Bbm
we go to bed and I lie awake, lie awake and
Eb Abm E7
float out the window and down the street, over the bridge and
Dm Bbm
into the village for a little break from me, meaning us.
Eb Abm E7 Dm Bbm
Eb Abm E7
I float away and you disappear, disappear,
Dm Bbm
some pretty young villager takes my hand and leads me to more
Eb Abm E7
pretty young villagers forming a ring, forming a ring around
Dm Bbm Eb
a bonfire built on a line in the sand between me an us.
Eb Gm Cm Gm F Em Am
Am I lost, have I lost, have they thrown me on the fire,
C/G Em EmM7 D C#m F#m
there to dance in the flames, far enough from you to wonder
Bbm7+
if me still means us.
Eb Abm E7 Dm Bbm (3x - Banjo solo)
Eb Abm E7
She leads me to the end of the night. A boyfriend of hers is there.
Dm Bbm
You're on his arm, but our eyes don't meet, our eyes don't meet 'cause
Eb Abm E7
we only have eyes for fueling the fire, being melted down and reformed
Dm Bbm
in the image of wilder things, wilder things than us.
Eb Gm Cm Gm F Em Am
Are we lost, have we lost, have they thrown us on the fire,
C/G Em EmM7 D C#m F#m
there to dance in the flames, far enough from one another.
F#m Bbm7+ F#m Bbm7+
F#m Bbm7+ F#m Bbm7+
We fed them to the flames, but they're just getting colder and colder.
F#m Bbm7+
The boy's at least half again as selfish, and the girl's feeling a day
F#m Bb
older per hour,
F#m Bbm7+
but there's no help for them now,
F#m Bbm7+
because together looks good when you're alone looks good
F#m Bbm7+
when you're together,
F#m Bbm7+ F#m Bb
and it takes a village older and less inclined to say which is better to say
F#m Bbm7+
which would be better.
Eb Abm E7 Dm Bbm
