Strum
D-DU-UDU
Do  do do, do do do do  do. Do-do  do, do do do do  do.
Do-do  do, do do do do do. Do-do  do, do do do do  do.
 I've got a lot  to say I just don't know how to say  it
 I know  all the rules I just can't seem to play  it
 You can tick  the boxes, follow the equation
 But the knife  wont budge until you learn patience
Do  do do, do do do do  do. Do-do  do, do do do do  do.
 I've got notes  to sing I just can't reach the words
 They're out  on the ledge in the dark with the birds
 But I'm trying  to find them inside of you
Take  my brain and break it in two
Melody,  you're the only one who saves  me
 Out of the cold you take  me
 (Set me on fire)
 You save  me
 (Set  me on fire)
Melody,  all I want is to remember  what came before this winter
 (Set me on fire)
Save  me
Set  me on fire
Do  do do, do do do do  do. Do-do  do, do do do do  do.
 I've got a rock  between my heart and mouth
 I know  how it got there but I can't  pull it out
 And the bones  that once moved my fingers over keys
 Are protesting  in fist on my knees
 Gotta find  a way to unzip my skin 'cause this  is a stranger's im living in
Melody,  you're the only one who saves  me
 Out of the cold you take  me
 (Set me on fire)
 You save  me
(Set  me on fire)
Melody,  all I want is to remember  what came before this winter
 (Set me on fire)
 You save  me
Set  me on fire
 |Dm | x12 (play for 12 bars of 4)
 Do do do, do do do do etc.
 (What came before the winter)
 Set me on fire
Melody,  you're the only one who saves  me
 Out of the cold you take  me
 And set me on fire
 You  set me on fire
Melody,  all I want is to remember  what came before this winter
 (Set me on fire)
Save  me
Set  me on fire
Melody,  you're the only one  who saves me ooooooooo
 You set me on  fire
