Candle – All Our Exes Live in Texas
[Capo 3]
[Intro] – with hammer on 4th string and then 3rd string (Am shape)
Am Am Am Am
[Verse 1]
Am E
Mother said you'd wind up here, written into song
Am F C E
I have to say I'm sorry, for it's taken me so long to write about you
Am E
And maybe breaking your sweetheart is what I had to do
Am F C E E
But don't worry, baby, for I've broken my heart too in losing you
[Chorus]
A Em
'Cause though I see our candles going out (Ah ah-ah, ah, ah...)
A Dm
I have to say, I've got my doubts (Ooh oo-ooh, ooh-ooh...)
A Dm
Things have been going so well (Ah ah-ah, ah-ah...)
A Dm Dm7 E E
It seems a shame to walk through hell together just to say goodbye
[Post Chorus] – with hammer ons
Am Am
[Verse 2]
Am E
We both know I'll stay resolved in what I have to do
Am F C E
Even if it's just because my mother told me to - she never got you
Am E
And yes, I see the irony, it's all becoming clear
Am F C E
But finally, I write for you a song you'll never hear, isn't it funny?
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
F C
And I'll see you one more time (One more time)
F C
Just to make things right
F C Am7 D7 D7 E E
Yes, I'll love you one more time through the dark of the night
[Chorus and Post Chorus]
