Regina Spektor – Firewood (Guitar)

C
The piano is not firewood yet

F           C            Dm         G  
They try to remember but still they forget

C
That the heart beats in threes 

C
Just like a waltz

F                             Dm         
And nothing can stop you from dancing

C
Rise from your cold hospital bed

            C7         F
I tell you, you're not dying

C        Fm           C        Fsus2
Everyone knows you're going to live

C                         Am6/G   G7
So you might as well start trying

C
The piano is not firewood yet

F                      C
But the cold does get cold

Dm                   G
So it soon might be that

C
I'll take it apart, call up my friends

          F            C            Dm
And we'll warm up our hands by the fire

C
Don't look so shocked

C7
You don't know

             F
You are only spying

C        Fm         C        Fsus2
Everyone knows it's going to hurt

C                         Am6/G   G7
But at least we'll get hurt trying

C
The piano is not firewood yet

F                    C
But a heart can't be helped

Dm             G 
And it gathers regret

C
Someday you'll wake up and feel a great pain

           F          C            Dm        G
And you'll miss every toy you ever owned

F                 C
You'll want to go back

Dm          C7       F 
Nothing can slow the crying

C               Fm                Fsus2
You'll take the clock off of your wall

           C           G7    C 
And you'll wish it was lying

F             C
Love what you have and you'll have more love

C7         F  
You're not dying

C        Fm                    Fsus2
Everyone knows you're going to love

C                                G7    C
Though there's still no cure for crying
