It's not a silly little moment, [A] it's not the storm [E] before the calm.
[C#m] This is the deep and dying breath of this [A] love that we've been working [E] on.
Can't seem to hold [C#m] you like I want to, [A] so I can feel you in [E] my arms.
[C#m] Nobody's gonna come and save you, we've held too [A] many [E] false alarms.
We're [B] going down, [E]
[C#m] and you can see [A] it too.
We're [B] going down, [C#m] and you know [A] that we're done.
My dear, we're slow dancing in [A] a [E] burning room.

[E] I [C#m] was the one you always dreamed of.
You were the [A] one I [E] tried to draw.
[C#m] Now you say it's nothing to me.
Baby, you're [A] the only light [E] I ever saw.
[C#m] I'll make the most of all the sadness.
You [A] can be a bitch because [E] you can.
Oh, [C#m] you try to hit me just to hurt me, so you leave me feeling dirty because you can't [E] understand.
We're [B] going down, and [C#m] you can see [A] it too.
We're [B] going down, [C#m] and you know that [A] we're done.
My [C#m] dear, we're slow dancing [A] in a [E] burning [C#m]
[A] room.

[G#m] [A] [E] Don't you think [C#m] we ought to know about love?
Don't you think [A] we should learn [E] somehow?
