Verse 1:
 
B      C#m G#m         A 
  Find me again like a rusted  
    B   E         G#m 
bike in your back yard 
        A              B 
Pull me up from the debris 
    C#m     G#m A  B    E   G#m   A 
I'm covered up  in dust and leaves 



[Refrão]

      E       B G#m   E      B 
We're lighting  fires in July 
   G#m        E 
To cleanse us of the heat 
    B       G#m 
You beg you plead you 
E 
promise not to leave 
                 B 
You're just like everyone 
       G#m       E 
You're just like everything 




Chorus: B C#m G#m A B E G#m A  


Verse 2: 

B       E                G#m 
  Smoke reaches for the stars 
    A               B 
but settles for the glass 
    E          G#m 
You tried your best to 
          A        E 
save your best for last 
    G#m      E        C#m 
But now your time has passed 
E        G#m      F# 
Now your time has passed 


(Repeat Chorus 1) 


Bridge:
 
E 
  The only difference is 
                  B 
you listen and forgive 
     F#          G#m 
Just take it all in 
         E           B 
and I'll take it all back 
You only need to see  
fireworks once a year 
B      F#          G#m 
  Just take it all in  
         E 
and I'll take it all back 
B      F#          G#m 
  Just take it all in  
         E 
and I'll take it all back 
B      F#          G#m 
  Just take it all in  
         C#      B  F# G#m E 
and I'll take it all   back 


Interlude: B C#m E
