Set The Fire To The Third Bar

"set the fire to the third bar" snow patrol put the capo on the 2nd fret Am C i find the map and draw a straight line Am C over rivers , farms , and state lines . Am C the distance from me to where you’d be , Am C it’s only finger lenths that i see . C G Am C G Am i touch the place where i’d find your face . C G Am C G Am my finger increases of distant dark places . Am C i hang my coat up in the first bar . Am C there is no peace that i’ve felt so far . Am C the laughter penetrates my silence , Am C as drunken men find flaws in science . C G Am their words mostly noises . C G Am ghosts with just voices . C G Am your words in my memory . C G Am are like music to me . Am C i’m miles from where you are , G and i lay down on the cold ground . Am C i pray that something picks me up , G and sets me down in your warm arms . Am C after i have travelled so far , Am C we’d set the fire to the third bar . Am C we’d share each other like an island , Am C until exhausted , close our eyelids . C G Am and dreaming pink wildfire , C G Am the last place we left off . C G Am your soft skin is weeping . C G Am a joy you can’t keep it . Am C i’m miles from where you are , G and i lay down on the cold ground . Am C i pray that something picks me up , G and sets me down in your warm arms . Am C i’m miles from where you are , G and i lay down on the cold ground . Am C i pray that something picks me up , G and sets me down in your warm arms . end on Am , C , or G . this was my 1st tab so i hope it’s useful to someone! : ) god bless! jeannababy94
