Chords

[Intro]
                    G
Watchin' cigarettes burn out

                       Em
Till all the neon gets turned out

                            Am
I was so on fire for you it hurts how

C        D             G
  Fast a cigarette can burn out
[Verse]
     C                            Bm
Just watchin' rivers run down the side of the bottle

Am                         G
almost like it's cryin' my tears

        C
Had the world on a string

           Bm
and then I lost everything

    Am                    D
and that's how I wound up here
[Chorus]
                    G
Watchin' cigarettes burn out

                       Em
Till all the neon gets turned out

                               Am
There's nothin' left but empty glasses now

         C
it's all flashes now

D           D7/C              Em7/B       D
  a smokin' memory that ain't nothin' but ashes

       G
in the low lights

                                 Em
These done me wrong songs hit me so right

                          Am
I'm so on fire for you it hurts how

C        D             G
  fast a cigarette can burn out
[Verse]
                C
If you put your hands on the flame

              Bm
You've got no right to complain

          Am                         G
Cause you know it's going to leave a mark

         C                                   Bm
When the glow comes to an end like scattered embers in the wind

           Am                      D
Leaves you lookin' for a brand new spark

                    G
Watchin' cigarettes burn out
[Solo] G Em Am D [Bridge]
              C                Bm
Aw with every hit I'm going to quit

             Am                           G
But who am I kiddin' I just can't put you down

                    C#m7-5
So I keep hangin' around
[Chorus]
                    G
Watchin' cigarettes burn out

                       Em
Till all the neon gets turned out

                               Am
There's nothin' left but empty glasses now

         C
it's all flashes now

D           D7/C              Em7/B       D
  a smokin' memory that ain't nothin' but ashes

       G
in the low lights

                                 Em
These done me wrong songs hit me so right

                          Am
I'm so on fire for you it hurts how

C        D             G
  Fast a cigarette can burn out

Em                            Am
  I was so on fire for you it hurts how

C        D             G         Em
  Fast a cigarette can burn out
G
