🎸 Verse 1:
C
Maybe I'm in my head
                Em Bm
But everything we said was wrong
C
Maybe I should have known
                    Em Bm
We could have made this right all along
C

Why are we still holding back
D                Em
After everything that led us here?
C
I don't want to watch it disappear


🎸 Chorus:
C                G
'Cause we're holding back the reins
C                G
And we're screeching on the tires
C            G    D        C
But the dying ember's flame could light the fire
        Am Em          Am Em Bm
Could light the fire, could light the fire

Am Em
Bm C


🎸 Verse 2:
C
Remember when we first met?
                Em Bm
I knew you had a heart of gold
C
The way you let me in
                Em Bm
Was something I had never known
C            D
When I turn around, I see the life we've made
            Em
I know we've come so far
C
I don't want to watch it fall apart


🎸 Chorus:
C                G
'Cause we're holding back the reins
C                G
And we're screeching on the tires
C            G    D        C
But the dying ember's flame could light the fire
        Am Em          Am Em Bm
Could light the fire, could light the fire
