Em        C           D 
Things we lost to the flame 
Em           C     Am  D 
Things we'll never see again 
Em       C       D 
All that we've amassed 
Em     C        Am             D 
Sits before us, shattered into ash 

Em                    D 
These are the things, the things we lost 
Bm                        C 
The things we lost in the fire fire fire 
Em                    D 
These are the things, the things we lost 
Bm                        C 
The things we lost in the fire fire fire 

Em         D 
We sat and made a list 
Bm                    C 
Of all the things that we have 
Em                D 
Down the backs of table tops 
Bm                    C 
Ticket stubs and your diaries 
Em          D 
I read them all one day 
     Bm                  C 
When loneliness came and you were away 
Em              D 
Oh they told me nothing new, 
      Bm                         C 
But I love to read the words you used 

Em                    D 
These are the things, the things we lost 
Bm                        C 
The things we lost in the fire fire fire 
Em                    D 
These are the things, the things we lost 
Bm                        C 
The things we lost in the fire fire fire 

Am                  F 
I was the match and you were the rock 
C                     G 
Maybe we started this fire 
Am               F 
We sat apart and watched 
C                        G 
All we had burned on the pyre 

Am                 F 
(You said) we were born with nothing 
       C                         G 
And we sure as hell have nothing now 
Am                 F 
(You said) we were born with nothing 
       C                         G 
And we sure as hell have nothing now 

Em                    D 
These are the things, the things we lost 
Bm                        C 
The things we lost in the fire fire fire 
Em                    D 
These are the things, the things we lost 
Bm                        C 
The things we lost in the fire fire fire 

Em          C          D 
Flames they licked the walls 
Em            C         Am              D 
Tenderly they turned to dust all that I adore
