Chords
[Intro]
F Bb
[Verse 1]
F True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree
A willow dancing on air before covering me
Bb Under cotton and calicoes
Over canopy dappled long aFgo
True that love in withdrawal was the weeping of me
That the sound of the saw must be known by the tree
Bb Must be felled for to fight the cold
Fretted fire but that was long aFgo
[Chorus]
F It's not tonightDm Bb F Where I'm set alightDm Bb F And I blink in sightDm C Bb Of your blinding light
FOh, it's not tonightDm Bb F Where you hold me tight Dm Bb
F And the fire brightDm C BbOh, let it blaze alright
FOh, but you're Bbgood to me, F
Oh, you're Bbgood to me
FOh, but you're Bbgood to me, Fbaby Bb
[Verse 2]
F With the roar of the fire, my heart rose to its feet
Like the ashes of ash, I saw rise in the heat
Bb Settled soft and as pure as snow
I fell in love with the fire long aFgo
With each love I cut loose, I was never the same
Watching stillliving roots be consumed by the flame
Bb I was fixed on your hand of gold
Laying waste to my loving long aFgo
[Chorus]

Dm Gm Bb
[Verse 3]
F So in awe, there I stood as you licked off the grain
Though I've handled the wood, I still worship the flame
Bb As long as amber of ember glows
All the "would" that I'd loved is long aFgo
[Chorus]
