E A

[Verse 1]

E                           A
Cue the music, let it build
E                         A
the melancholy soundtrack of a summer indie film
E                    A
I'm the quirky, unconventional leading guy
E                    A                                B
I say stupid garbage no one’s ever said in their real life
                       A
like "I've been taking bigger breaths lately
B                        A
cause you told me not to hold it waiting for you to commit"

[Chorus]

E      A
Slow Burn
            B                   A                  E
I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
       A
Slow Burn
              B                             A                 E
My heart goes pitter-patter, pitter-patter; batter up, I'm up next
     A          B                    A            E
Slow Burn, Slow Burn ‘cause it’s the only light I know
              A                B     A         E
while there’s hope for you and me, I burn real slow

[Verse 2]

E                             A
So let’s stay home tonight my love
E                                 A
I don't like crowded rooms or the silly folk that fill them up
E                       A
my introversion's not a charming trait
E                             A
my wits not good for much but thinking up useless stuff to say
    B                       A
Like "My hopes are sleeping quietly in bed
B                        A
cause you told me not to get them up dreamin’ one day you'd commit!"

[Chorus]

E      A
Slow Burn
            B                   A                  E
I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
       A
Slow Burn
              B                             A                 E
My heart goes pitter-patter, pitter-patter; batter up, I'm up next
     A          B                    A            E
Slow Burn, Slow Burn ‘cause it’s the only light I know
              A                B     A         E
while there’s hope for you and me, I burn real slow

[Bridge]

  E                        A
I didn't know better, so I didn't better
  B                       A
I held onto hope when it's best I forget her
  E                        A
I didn't know better, so I didn't better
B                       A
Love has a spirit and I followed the letter
  E                        A
I didn't know better, so I didn't better
     B                       A
I've loved her so long and I can't quite remember
     E                     A
that all of my eggs in her basket won't hatch
         B                          A
but I've counted each one and now I want 'em all back!

[Chorus]

E      A
Slow Burn
            B                   A                  E
I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
       A
Slow Burn
              B                             A                 E
My heart goes pitter-patter, pitter-patter; batter up, I'm up next
     A          B                    A            E
Slow Burn, Slow Burn ‘cause it’s the only light I know
              A                B     A         E
while there’s hope for you and me, I burn real slow
