Em D Cmaj7
Em D Cmaj7 G
I thought it was you, guess it must’ve been me
Em D Cmaj7 D
You’ve been teaching me what it’s all about
Em D Cmaj7, Em, D, Cmaj7
The conditions on which we live our lives
Em D Cmaj7 G
I came here empty, on empty I’ll return
Em D Cmaj7 D
In between are hard lines, the knowledge of fire that doesn’t burn
Em D Cmaj7, Em, D, Cmaj7
The conditions on which we live our lives
(Chorus)
Em C G D
Don’t give in to the illusion of fire
Em C G D
Turn your back on that turning point
Em C G D Cmaj7 D Em D Cmaj7
Don’t give in to the illusion of fire, like I did
Em D Cmaj7 G
I came home late last night, guess I didn’t play the cards right
Em D Cmaj7 D
You’ve been teaching me how to survive and fight
Em D Cmaj7, Em, D, Cmaj7
The conditions on which we live our lives
(Chorus 2x)
Em C G D
Don’t give in to the illusion of fire
Em C G D
Turn your back on that turning point
Em C G D Cmaj7 D Em D Cmaj7
Don’t give in to the illusion of fire, like I did
