Cm                      Ebmaj7   
   When the wind picked up
               Bb                    F
the fire spread and the grapevines seemed left for dead.
Cm                    Eb   
    And the northern sky looked like the end of days,
Bb                    Gm
   the end of days.
Cm            Eb        
   A wake up call to a rancid room
Bb                   F
   Sounded like an alarm of impending doom.
Cm                  Eb               Bb
   To warn us it's only a matter of time.

2nd VERSE:
Cm                 Eb  
   We bought some wine and some paper cups
Bb                       F
   near your daughter's school when we picked her up
Cm                 Eb
   and drove to a cemetery on a hill
Bb       Gm
   on a hill.
Cm                     Eb   
   And we watched the plumes paint the sky grey 
Bb                       F
   and she laughed and danced through the field of graves
Cm                                Eb   
   And there I knew it would be alright
Bb             F
   that everything

Would be alright

               Bb
said it was getting worse 
Cm              Eb             Gm
   As the ocean air found the flames 
D7                            Eb                             Bb
   But I couldn't think of anywhere I would have rather been 
Cm            Eb        F
 To watch it all burn away 
         Cm   Eb   Bb   F 
To burn away.

OUTRO:
Cm               Eb   
   The firemen worked in double shifts,
Bb                   F 
   with prayers for rain on their lips 
Cm                       Eb               Bb
   And they knew it was only a matter of time.
