-Verse 1-
---------
[Bm] When the wind picked u[D]p the fire spread[A]
And the grapevines see[E]med left for dead[Bm]
And the Northern sk[D]y looked like the end of days[A]
The end of days[Fm]
[Bm] The wake-up call [D]to a rented room[A]
Sounded like an al[E]arm of impending doom[Bm]
To warn us it's [D]only a matter of time[A]

-Chorus-

Before we all [Bm]burn[D] [A] [E]
Before we all [Bm]burn[D] [A] [Fm]
Before we all [Bm]burn[D] [A] [E]
Bm D A (hold A)
Before we all burn
---------
-Verse 2-

[Bm] We bought some [D]wine and some paper cups[A]
Near your daughters [E]school when we picked her up[Bm]
And drove to a [D]cemetery on a hi[A]ll
On a hi[Fm]ll
[Bm] And we watched the pl[D]umes paint the sky gra[A]y
But she laughed and [E]danced through the field of grav[Bm]es
And there I k[D]new it would be alrig[A]ht
That every[E]thing
--------
-Chorus-
--------
Would be al[Bm]right[D] [A] [E]
Would be al[Bm]right[D] [A] [Fm]
Would be al[Bm]right[D] [A] [E]
Bm D A (hold A)
Would be alright

-Bridge-
--------
[C#] And the news reports on the [D]radio
Said it was [A]getting worse[Bm]
As the ocean [D]air fanned the flam[Fm]es
[C#] But I couldn't think
Of [D]anywhere I would of [A]rather been[Bm]
To watch it [D]all burn aw[E]ay
--------
-Chorus-

To burn a[Bm]way[D] [A] [E]

-Outro-
-------
[Bm] And the firemen wo[D]rked in double shift[A]s
With prayers for [E]rain on their lip[Bm]s
D A (fade)
And they knew it was only a matter of time
