Capo on 3rd fret
[Intro]
[D] [G]
[Verse1]
[D]True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree
Willow dancin' on air before covering me
[G]Under garden and calicos
Over canopy dabbled long ago [D]
[D]True that love in withdrawal was the weepin' of me
That the sound of the saw must be known by the tree
[G]Must be felt 'fore the fight, the call
Friendly fire, but that was long ago [D]
[Chorus]
[D]But that's not tonight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
When I'm set alight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
And I blink inside ([Bm](Oh, [A]oh) [G]
[G]Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
[D]Oh, that's not tonight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
When you hold me tight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
All the fire bright ([Bm](Oh, [A]oh) [G]
[G]Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)
Oh, [D]hope that you're [G]good to me,[D]me, oh, you're [G]good to me (Oh, oh)
[D]Hope that you're [G]good to me, [D]baby (Oh, oh)
[Instrumental]
[D] [G]
[Verse2]
[D]With the war of the fire, my heart moves to its feet
Like the ashes of ash, I saw eyes in the heat
[G]Feel it soft and as pure as snow
Fell in love with the fire long ago [D]
[D]With each love I could lose, I was never the same
Watch it still live in roofs, be consumed by the flame
[G]I was fixed on your hand of gold
Lay in waste of my lovin' long ago [D]
[Chorus]
[D]But that's not tonight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
When I'm set alight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
And I blink inside ([Bm](Oh, [A]oh) [G]
[G]Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
[D]Oh, that's not tonight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
When you hold me tight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
All the fire bright ([Bm](Oh, [A]oh) [G]
[G]Oh, let it blaze alright, honey (Oh, oh)
Oh, [D]hope that you're [G]good to me,[D]me, oh, you're [G]good to me (Oh, oh)
[D]Hope that you're [G]good to me, [Bm]baby (Oh, oh)[G]oh) [Bm] [Em] [G]
[Verse3]
[D]So in awe there I stood as you licked off the grain
Though I've handled the wood, I still worship the flame
[G]Long as amber of ember glows
All the wood that I'd loved is long ago [D]
[Chorus]
[D]But that's not tonight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
When I'm set alight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
And I blink inside ([Bm](Oh, [A]oh) [G]
[G]Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
[D]Oh, that's not tonight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
When you hold me tight ([Bm](Oh, [G]oh) [D]
All the fire bright ([Bm](Oh, [A]oh) [G]
[G]Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)
[D]Hope you're [G]good to me,[D]me, hope you're [G]good to me (Oh, oh)
[D]Hope that you're [G]good to me (Oh, oh)
[D]Oh, [G]oh, [D]hope you're [G]good to me, [D]you're [G]good to me (Oh, oh)
[D]Hope that you're [G]good to me, [D]baby (Oh, oh)
