Grapevine Fires  Death Cab for Cutie

I'm sure this isn't 100% correct, but it's how I play along acoustically with the album version.
I hope you enjoy the new album as much as I do.

[Cm]When the wind picked [D#m]up, the fire spread [A#]
And the grapevine [Gm]scene left for dead [Cm]
And the northern [D#m]sky looked like the end of days [A#]
The end of days [Gm]
[Cm]Your wake-up [D#m]call to a rented room [A#]
Sounded like an al[Gm]arm of impending doom [Cm]
To warn us it's [D#m]only a matter of [A#]time
Before we all [Cm]burn..[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
Before we all [Cm]burn..[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
Before we all [Cm]burn..[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
Before we all [Cm]burn..[D#m].......[A#].......
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/death_cab_for_cutie/grapevine_fires_crd_ver_2.html )
[Cm]We bought some [D#m]wine and some paper cups [A#]
Near your daughter's [Gm]school when we picked her up [Cm]
And drove to a [D#m]cemetery on a hi[A#]ll, on a [Gm]hill
[Cm]And we watched the [D#m]plumes paint the sky gray[A#]
As she laughed and [Gm]danced through the field of graves[Cm]
And there I [D#m]knew it would be all [A#]right
That every[Gm]thing
Would be all [Cm]right.[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
Would be all [Cm]right.[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
Would be all [Cm]right.[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
Would be all [Cm]right.[D#m].......[A#].......
[Dm]And the news reports
On the ra[D#m]dio said it was [A#]getting worse[Cm]
As the ocean [D#m]air fanned the [Gm]flames
[Dm]But I couldn't think
Of [D#m]anywhere I would've [A#]rather been[Cm]
To watch it [D#m]all burn aw[Fadd9]ay
Burn [Cm]away..[D#m].......[A#].....[Gm]..
[Cm]Oooooo[D#m]ooooohh[A#]hh...[Gm].. (Repeated)
[Cm]And the firemen [D#m]worked in double shifts[A#]
With prayers for [Gm]rain on their lips[Cm]
And they knew it[D#m] was only a matter of [A#]time
