[Intro]
G6 C6 D6 x5


[Verse 1]
 G6
Sleeping with my best friend
 C6              D6
This is a terrible idea
 G6
'Cause what if this friendship ends?
 C6            D6
I always want her to be near
 G6
I can't stop playing with her fire
 C6          D6
Pyromaniac at heart
 G6
She'll burn me out, I'm already tired
 C6            D6
But I'd rather be up late than apart


[Chorus]
 Am7             D9
'Cause she's the flame
 G6
That's lifting this hot air balloon
 G6
Closer and closer up to the moon
 Am7            D9
Yeah, she's the flame
 G6
That's every reason I have to blame
 G6
For driving this sweet boy insane

G6 C6 D6 x2


[Verse 2]
 G6
Wish she'd see things my way
 C6               D6
Two flames combine and dance as one
 G6
It'll be a beautiful display
 C6             D6
Fireworks under the sun
 G6
She'd rather scorch the whole earth
 C6                D6
Leave me with nothing in the rain
 G6
Never admit that we were
 C6               D6
I'll end up smoking away in pain


[Chorus]
 Am7             D9
'Cause she's the flame
  G6
That's lifting this hot air balloon
 G6
Closer and closer up to the moon
 Am7            D9
Yeah, she's the flame
 G6
That's every reason I have to blame
 G6
For driving this sweet boy insane

[Bridge]
 D6                   C6          Bm7
And we'll always go down in flames
                Am7
Nothing but embers and broken dreams
 D6                   C6          Bm7
And we'll always go down in flames
                Am7
Nothing but embers and broken dreams

Nothing but embers and broken dreams

And we'll always go down in flames, in flames


[Chorus]
 Am7                D9
'Cause she's the flame
 G6
That's lifting this hot air balloon
 G6
Closer and closer up to the moon
 Am7             D9
Yeah, she's the flame
 G6
That's every reason I have to blame
 G6
For driving this sweet boy insane
 Am7              D9
'Cause she's the flame
 G6
That's lifting this hot air balloon
 G6
Closer and closer up to the moon

Yeah, she's the flame
 G6
That's every reason I have to blame
