[D] [G]
[D] She was a woman [F#m] with a magnetic smile pointed [G] at me [A#] like a compass at night.
I [D] can't imagine [F#m] what the world would be like [G] without her sunset.
[A#] The brightness of the sky [D] showed me her streets [F#m] and the cool shadows in which [G] I lingered
[A#] Before bursting into light [D] opened her door
I [F#m] was beckoned inside [G] into a fairy tale
[A#] I climbed up to her heights, [Bm] oh look at this
[D]
Fire [F#] she is,
[G] [Bm] oh look at this
[D] [F] Fire she is
[G] [D]
I walk down her steps and [F#m] the centuries echo [G] my footfalls
[A#] Bouncing round the [C] crypt [D] I hear the waves
[F#m] Like the beat of a heart [G] down by the shoreline
[A#] Past and present slips [Bm] away, oh look at this
[D]
[Em] Fire [F] she is,
[G] [Bm] oh look at this
[F] Fire she is
[G] [D]
[F#m] Show me [G] a reason, [Bm] give me a [Em] [D] sign
[F#m] We could [G] be leaving [Gm] all [D] this behind
So [Gm] [D]
if a songbird [F#m] flies from the north [G] down to the island
[A#] He'll be holding her hand [D] and he'll be looking for [F#m] the house that's still down [G] by the shoreline
[A#] And she'll understand, [F] oh [Bm] look at this
[D] Fire [F] she is, [G] oh [Bm] look at this
Fire [F] she is
[G] Show
[D]
[F#m] [G] me a reason,
[Bm] give me a [D] sign
[F#m] We could [G] be leaving
[Gm] all [D] this behind
[G] [Gm] [D] [Dm]
