[Intro] D  G6/E  G  D

D
We were walking in a circle, hand in hand
G6/E                                               G       D
And your feet were sinking deeper in the sand than mine
D
You had sold me the mansion in your head

G6/E                                               G
I would cut your hair and you would dye it red as fire
D
As a crackling fire
 
G                       D
And I would hold the phone
G                 D
So you were not alone
G                   D                     A
I had to take you home, you couldn't even drive

D
You had smiled when you told me you were brave
G6/E                                                G     D
And that your life was in other hands to save, not mine
D
I saw the mansion you had made me love ignite
G6/E                                                 G
And as you were fading, it was growing bright with fire
D
With a crackling fire

G                        D
And when you tried to stand
D                    D
You had to take my hand
G                        D                         A
You said "I think your plan will be splitting from mine"

D
We made a pile of all your remaining clothes
G6/E                                                        G     D
Where you're heading now you won't be needing those, it's fine
D
We soaked the pile till it dripped with gasoline
G6/E                                            G
And then I lit a match as if I'd never seen a fire, fire, fire
D
It was a big roaring fire
G                      D
And your heart beat failed
G                             D
And it stopped leaving its trails
G                        D                        A
But the last thing you exhaled while you were alive was
       
       G
I am alright
       D
I am alright
       G
I am alright
       D
I am alright
       G
I am alright
       D
I am alright
                     A
And I'm doing just fine
       G
I am alright
       D
I am alright
       G
I am alright
       D
I am alright
       G
I am alright
       D
I am alright
                     A
And I'm doing just fine
   G    
Yeah
