Intro:
[C Csus2 Am Csus2] x2
Verse 1:
C Csus2
The candles on the table lit you up,
Am Csus2
And I wondered if we'd done enough.
C Csus2
The blackout came to slow down everyone
Am Csus2
And it spoke to us, said "you've had your fun".
Verse 2:
C Csus2
The autumn in your eyes, it lit me up.
Am Csus2
I was a fallen leaf, you were a firework.
C Csus2
When winter came, I tried to keep us warm
Am Csus2
At least warmer than... than we'd been before.
Chorus:
F C Csus2 F C Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.
F C Csus2 F C Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.
Verse 3:
C Csus2
I pulled you close to me and soon forgot
Am Csus2
About those heavy hearts, about those other ones.
C Csus2
The blackout came to slow down everything
Am Csus2
That we'd come to know, we still had songs to sing.
Chorus:
F C Csus2 F C Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.
F C Csus2 F C Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.
Outro:
C Csus2
The candles on the table lit you up,
Am Csus2
And I wondered if we'd done enough.
