Selection chords: Katie Paterson

Verse:
Em                           B
Oh my precious ember burning my sweet glowing light
C                               B
From the moment I first saw you I was yours and you were mine
Em                              B
Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design
C                                 B
And the echo of my motherʼs words baby donʼt you play with fire

Pre-Chorus:
Em    D
I was always playing that part
Em         D
first love always at that spot
Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind

Chorus:
    B           Em                  C
Now Iʼm under your spell, trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldnʼt have stood that close to the fire
           Em                C
No turning back, no where to run
            D          B
No where to hide, itʼs too late to say goodbye
Em                  C            D              B
Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start
          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time
     B
Itʼs too late, itʼs too late to say goodbye

Verse:
Em                              B
I can hear the sounds of sirens circling around
C                                  B
Forced to watch the ashes floating softly drifting to the ground
Em                              B
Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design
C                                 B
And the echo of my motherʼs words baby donʼt you play with fire

Pre-Chorus:
Em    D
I was always playing that part
Em         D
first love always at that spot
Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind

Chorus:
    B             Em                  C
Now Iʼm under your spell, trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldnʼt have stood that close to the fire
           Em                C
No turning back, no where to run
            D          B
No where to hide, itʼs too late to say goodbye
Em                  C            D              B
Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start
          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time
     B
Itʼs too late, itʼs too late to say goodbye

Em C D B x2

Bridge:
C             D                B             C
After all the dust has settled we can settle down
C               D          B           C
Just the two of us forever no one else around
B           C
No one else around
B
Around

Chorus:
    B             Em                  C
Now Iʼm under your spell, trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldnʼt have stood that close to the fire
           Em                C
No turning back, no where to run
            D          B
No where to hide, itʼs too late to say goodbye
Em                  C            D              B
Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start
          Em          C            D
But oh my God is this real no more time
     B
itʼs too late, itʼs too late, itʼs too late to say goodbye
