C       Em                 D
I'm tired of tending to this fire
                         C
I've used up all I've collected
Em                D
I have singed my hands
     C        Em             D
It's glowing, embers barely showing
                       C
Proof of life in the shadows
Em            D
Dancing on my plans
                     C     Em
They know that it's almost
                     D      Bm
They know that it's almost over
                     C     Em
They know that it's almost
                     D      Bm
They know that it's almost over

( C  Em  D  Bm ) 
( C  Em  D  Bm ) 

      C        Em              D 
The burning is so low it's concerning
                               C
'Cause they know that when it goes out
Em                D
It's a glorious gone
      C   Em                D  
It's only time before they show me
                  C
Why no one ever comes back
Em                  D
With details from beyond

                     C     Em
They know that it's almost
                     D      Bm
They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost over
              C     Em
They know
                     D      Bm
They know that it's almost over
        C Em D Bm
They know
        C Em D Bm     
They know
              
    C    Em               D    Bm     
In time, I will leave the city
    C    D            D
For now, I will stay alive
    C    Em               D    Bm     
In time, I will leave the city
    C    D            D
For now, I will stay alive
    C    Em               D    Bm     
In time, I will leave the city

They know that it's almost over
        C Em D Bm
They know
        C Em D Bm     
They know

 C          Em                D
Last year I needed change of pace
         Bm                 C
Couldn't take the pace of change
 Em         D
Moving hastily
 C              Em                 D
But this year, though I'm far from home
    Bm             C
In Trench I'm not alone
       Em           D
These faces facing me

        C Em D Bm
They know
        C Em D Bm     
They know
What I mean
