| Gsus4 | F | |
| Two weeks later like a | surplus reprieve |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| I found a hair the length of | yours on my sleeve |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| I wound it round and round my | finger so tight |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| It turned to purple and a | pulse formed inside |
| C |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| And I knew the beat cause it | matched your own beat |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| I still remember it from our | chest to chest and feet to feet |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| The easy silence then was a | sweet relief to this hush |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| Of ovens, airplanes and of | distant car points |
| Chorus: |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| A fire a fire, you can | only take what | you can carry |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| A pulse, you're pulse, it's the | only thing I | can remember |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| I break, you don't, I was | always set to s | elf-destruct, though |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| The fire, the fire, it | cracks and the barks like | primal music |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| I said I knew the beat cause it | matched your own beat |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| It's become my engine my | own source of heat |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| The sea between only | amplifies the sound waves |
| Gsus4 | F | |
| And every hum and echo and | crash paints my cave |
| Chorus |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| La la la la la, la | la la la | la |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| La la la la la, la | la la la | la |
| C | Gsus4 | F | |
| La la la la la, la | la la la | la |
| Chorus |
