           C#m7
It's not a silly little moment

             Aadd9            E
It's not the storm before the calm

            C#m7
This is the deep and dying breath of

                          Aadd9   E
This love that we've been working on

              C#m7
Can't seem to hold you like I want to

         Aadd9          E
So I can feel you in my arms

         C#m7
Nobody's gonna come and save you

                      Aadd9   E
We've pulled too many false alarms
[Chorus]
            Badd11
We're going down

            C#m7   Aadd9
And you can see it too

            Badd11
We're going down

        C#m7            F#m11
And you know that we're doomed

   C#m7                          Aadd9   E
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room
[Instrumental] C#m7 Aadd9 E C#m7 Aadd9 E [Verse 2]
          C#m7
I was the one you always dreamed of

             Aadd9           E
You were the one I tried to draw

             C#m7
How dare you say it's nothing to me

                      Aadd9        E
Baby, you're the only light I ever saw

              C#m7
I'll make the most of all the sadness

            Aadd9             E
You'll be a bitch because you can

           C#m7
You try to hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty

           Aadd9      E
'Cause you can't understand
[Chorus]
            Badd11
We're going down

            C#m7   Aadd9
And you can see it too

            Badd11
We're going down

        C#m7            F#m11
And you know that we're doomed

   C#m7                          Aadd9   E
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room
[Instrumental] C#m7 Aadd9 E C#m7 Aadd9 E [Bridge]
   F#m11             C#m7       Badd11  Aadd9
Go cry about it, why don't you

   F#m11             C#m7       Badd11  Aadd9
Go cry about it, why don't you

   F#m11             C#m7       Badd11  Aadd9
Go cry about it, why don't you

   C#m7                          Aadd9   E
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room

                          C#m7
Don't you think we oughta know by now

                             Aadd9         E
Don't you think we should've learned somehow

                          C#m7
Don't you think we oughta know by now

                             Aadd9         E
Don't you think we should've learned somehow

                          C#m7
Don't you think we oughta know by now

                             Aadd9         E
Don't you think we should've learned somehow
