And We Remain

Fm D# G# C# G# C# G#

[Verse 1]
Fm         D#         G#
That murmuration of starlings
      C#        G#     C#        G#
Is stuck in my head, stuck in my head
Fm        D#        G#       C#          G#
Oh, the fear I can hear it beating your chest
      C#          G#
That beat in your chest

Fm                 D#     G#
There won't be no easy escaping
     C#        G#   C# G#
Just take my hand
   Fm          D#     G#
It won't just blow away
         C#        G#
Like my Cavendish can

[Chorus]
           G#            Fm
So let it burn, let the fire take what it may
       A#m                                   C#      D#
It'll turn to ash if it's meant to and we'll be okay
        G#          Fm
Let it go, let the moon surrender and wane
            A#m
Long as the altar holds what it's meant to
       C#         D#       G# D# G#
And, darling, and we remain.
C#        G# C# G#
We remain

[Verse 2]
Fm        D#         G#
Oh, now look to the mountain
      C#        G#        C#       G#
It's snowing again, it's snowing again

      Fm              D#       G#         C#         G#
That chest that was heavy and heaving is breathing again
      C#        G#
I'm breathing again

Fm                 D#           G#
There won't be a thing that we needed
     C#      G#           C#       G#
We needed anyway, didn't need it anyway
Fm       D#      G#        C#    G#
Ease is only a burden removed by pain

[Chorus]
           G#            Fm
So let it burn, let the fire take what it may
       A#m                                   C#      D#
It'll turn to ash if it's meant to and we'll be okay
       G#          Fm
Let it go, let the moon surrender and wane
            A#m
Long as the altar holds what it's meant to
   C#         D#       G#
Darling, and we remain.
A#m             C#    D#
Yeah, oh we remain

It'll turn to ash if it's mean to and we'll be okay
            G#         Fm
Let it go, -- let the moon surrender and wane
             A#m
Long as the altar holds what it's meant to
 C#      D#              G#  Fm              C# D#
Darling,    and we remain.        And we remain

Ours is a love gone so sweet
