Burning With Optimisms Flames chords by XTC

Verse 1:
C
Never seen her glowing
C
All that bright she's throwing
C
like some aurora, From her head, it's growing
Gm
Reaching to the ground and all around like a Navajo blanket

C
Never heard her singing
C
Now she's gently ringing
C
like copper wind chimes, what on earth is bringing
Gm
up this stream? The cat who got the cream is licking her lips

And smiling like her Cheshire cousin


Pre-Chorus:
Bb               F                           Bb
She claims she's found a way to make her own light
              F                     C
All you do is smile, you banish the night


Chorus:
C              G            F
She says she's burning with optimism's flames, away, away
C              G           F
She says she's burning up all her guilts and shames, away, away
C              G            F
She says she's burning with optimism's flames, away, away
C              Bm
She says she's burn-burn-burn-burn-burning up-up-up-up-up
Bm
burn-burn-burn-burn-burning up-up-up-up-up


Verse 2:
C
Now you see I'm smiling
C
Back to juveniling
C
I learnt her lesson, in like flint and styling
Gm
All the world is neatly curled, Around my littlest finger

C
I can't stop this grinning
C
So assume I'm winning
C
Threw pessimism in the air, it's spinning
Gm
Crashing to the floor and nevermore will it lure me away

With sweets and shiny things just like a magpie

Now every bird and bee, just fuel the fire for me

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah
