Sixpence None The Richer


Tom: C

     Am   C        Am                     C
it burns me down when I think of all the tears you've cried
    Am        C                 Am              C
for one million miles I've I logged on roads that led away from you
    Am           F      C
knowing there was nothing you could do
   Am   C      Am              C
inside my mind I saw you driving in your car
      Am     C                 Am
just one silhouette in the wind with a prayer that this would not go
 C
to far

 F     C  F     C
away from my residual flame
   F     C    Am      F
our bodies growing cold like stars
    C       F       C      F    C    Am
that lose their will to burn and fade into the night
  Dm                G
but we could burn like the northern lights

Refrão:
 F         C
baby - please stay
F                   Am
we can make it through another day

C    Am     C
it may - must we?
       Am           C
all the fiber optic arguments
    Am    C                 Am               C
without the warmth of your flesh we couldn't really make much sense
   F     C      F    C    F   C     Am
but now it's over and I am here my body next to yours
    F      C          F     C       F         C
we'll feed the flame with the fuel of time and burn like the northern
Am
lights
   Dm              G
I'm tired of all the senseless fights

Refrão 2x:
 F         C
baby - please stay
F                   Am  C
we can make it through another day

  Dm               G
* we could burn like the northern lights
 F  C F C F C Am (2X)
baby

 Dm        G
you love me and I love you
     F        C
so, baby - please stay
F                   Am
we can make it through another day
C F         C
baby - please stay
F                   Am
we can make it through another day
C F         C
baby - please stay
F                   Am
we can make it through another day
C F         C
baby - please stay
F                   Am  C
we can make it through another day
  Dm               G            F  C  F  Am  C
* we could burn like the northern lights baby
