[Verse 1]
C
Friend, old friend, it's 4:00am
F C
What are we doing in the street?
C
I don't want to buy fried chicken
F C
I wish that I was going to sleep
C
And I don't want to kiss you
F C
Underneath that flashing sign
C
What's the hurry? We're not ready
F
We've got plenty of time
[Chorus]
C
Maybe you will get married
Maybe fall in love
F
Could you make me fall asleep
When you're holding me?
Am
Try settin' me on fire
G
Try settin' me on fire
C
Try settin' me on
[Verse 2]
C
There's someone else but I twist all of
F C
His words and he twists mine
C
So I'll have to let him go
F C
We sometimes fit, but we always lie
C
And he thinks we could make it work
F C
But only when he's drunk
Am
You think you could help me swim
F
But I've already sunk
[Chorus]
C
So maybe you'll get married
Maybe fall in love
F
'Cause you can't fall asleep
When you're not holding me
Am
Go get set on fire
G
Go get set on fire
C
Go get set on...
[Bridge]
C
Friend, I am a slow, slow mover
F
Friend, I am a slow, slow girl
Em
Trying to be kind, kind, kinder
F G
Crawling in another world
[Chorus]
C
And maybe one day we'll get married
Maybe fall in love
F
Could you make me fall asleep
When you're holding me?
Am
Try settin' me on fire
G
Try settin' me on fire
F
Try settin' me on fire
G
Try settin' me on fire
Am
Try settin' me on fire
G
Try settin' me on fire
C
Try settin' me on...
