Afire Love

Bm                          D
Things were all good yesterday

                                 A  G
And then the devil took your memory

                          D      G
And if you fell to your death today,

                                    Bm
I hope that heaven is your resting place

Bm                                    A  D
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain

                                   A G
then that could've been the medicine

                                  A
And now you're lying in the bed again

A
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them
Pre-Chorus

G      D         Bm
And my father told me so

D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face

G         D            Bm
And you're not the only one

            G       D            A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see
Chorus

Bm                   G
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night

Em            A
And your life inside, a little while with you more

Bm                     G
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up

Em                     A
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love

Bm                       G
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut

Em                   A
for they're designed to be together

Bm                      G
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one

Em             A
And we'll set alight, we're afire love

D   Em    G   A
Verse

Bm                          D
Things were all good yesterday

                                      A  G
And then the devil took your breath away

                           D G
And now we're left here in pain

                                       Bm
Black suit black tie standing in the rain

Bm                           A D
And now my family is one again

                                             A G
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend

                                           A
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen

A
Six years old I remember when
Pre-Chorus

G      D         Bm
And my father told me so

D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face

G         D            Bm
And you're not the only one

            G       D            A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to see
Chorus

Bm                   G
Darling hold me in arms the way you did last night

Em                     A
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love

With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one

Em             A
And we'll set alight, we're afire love

Bm   G    Em   A
Bm                        G
My father, and all of my family

                 Em                  A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah

       Bm                     G
And my brother and all of my family

                Em                   A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
