Afire Love

Intro: ( Bm G Em A )(2x)
       ( D G Em A )

Bm                        (A  Bm)
  Things were all good yesterday
                              (A  G)
And then the devil took your memory
                              (D  G)
And if you fell to your death today
                                     Bm
I hope that heaven is your resting place
                                   (A  D)
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
                                   (A  G)
But then that could've been the medicine
                                  A
And now you're lying in the bed again
                                          G
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them

        D      Bm
And my father told me, son
              D                              D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
G       D           Bm
 And you're not the only one
               G    D        A
Although my grandma used to say

That he used to sing

Bm                        G                              Em
 Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night
                 A
And we'll lie inside for a little while here oh
Bm                      G                           Em
 I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
                      A                    Bm
And we're wrapped in light, in life, in love
                       G                            Em
 Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
               A                       Bm
For they're designed to be together, oh
                         G                              Em
 With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
                A                      Bm  G  Em  A
And we're set alight, we're afire love

Bm                        (A  Bm)
  Things were all good yesterday
                                  (A  G)
But then the devil took your breath away
                             (D  G)
And now we're left here in the pain
                                           Bm
Black suit, black tie, standing in the rain
                        (A  D)
And now my family is one again
                                         (A  G)
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
                                           A
Came to my mind, I should paint it with a pen
                               G
Six years old, I remember when

        D      Bm
My father told me, son
              D                              D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
G       D           Bm
 And you're not the only one
               G    D        A
Although my grandma used to say

He used to sing

Bm                        G                              Em

                 A
And we'll lie inside for a little while here oh
Bm                      G                           Em
 I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
                      A                    Bm
And we're wrapped in light, in life, in love
                       G                            Em
 Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
               A                       Bm
For they're designed to be together, oh
