C
You got a lot of lovers with star-crossed wrists
     C
They keep a candle burning on the corner you kissed.
   Fmaj7                                            C
One day I might die, until then there's too much to do
    G           G7          C
But I'll keep a bonfire for you.

[Verse]
     C
I've seen the pretty boys that you're keeping around
  C
I know how it goes, I've got a girl in town.
        Fmaj7                                C
And she likes me enough to do what I like to do.
     G           G7          C
But, I'll keep a bonfire for you.

[Chorus]
        Em
Let the other lovers talk about who carries the torch
         F                                            C
Let them talk about the beauty that they carry it for
        Em
Let the other lovers talk about who got what
       F                           C
And who got burned and who got cut

[Verse]
     C
I'll be in the orchard when you get tired
C
Day after day of the shouts from the choir
Fmaj7 
Eating the apples and eating the peaches, too
    G             G7          C 
And waiting by my bonfire for you.

[Bridge]
       C
In the dark anybody will do for love
          C
But you're the only one I want when the sun comes up
   Fmaj7                                   C
No burning ball of fire set in the sky will do
  G          G7             C
Next to my bonfire for you.

[Chorus]]
       Em
Let the other lovers talk about who carries the torch
        F
Let them talk about the beauty that they carry it for
        Em
Let the other lovers talk about who got what
    F
And who got burned and who got cut


[Verse]
  C
I need a little motion, need a little relief
    C
I get a little lonely at the end of the week
      Fmaj7                                    C
And I want it so bad and if you want it so bad, too
         G                 G7         C
I'll be over here with my bonfire for you.

[Verse]
You got a lot of lovers with star-crossed wrists
They keep a candle burning on the corner you kissed.
One day I might die, until then there's too much to do
But I'll keep a bonfire for you.
