While The Candle Still Burns

[Em] [G] [D]    x2

I can hear your car     [Em]        [G]
As you're d[C]riving in circles  [Em]     [G]       [C]
Reluctant to park     [Em]        [G]
Until you're [C]ready and stable,[Em]   [G]     [C]yeah

So walk [C]with me [G]into the [Em]fire    [D]
Come on, [C]follow me[G] close[D] behind

So we'll [G]go where they [C]won't know
Our secr[G]ets and [C]sorrows
We should l[G]eave while we [D]can
And be [Em]gone by tom[D]orrow
Can't you [G]see how the [C]second hand turns? [D]
We should [G]go while the [C]candle still [G]burns

You [Em]hesitate  [G]   to st[C]art
You just [Em]stand there with your h[G]ands bare
And [C]wonder who you are

And you [Em]take too much[G]   to [C]heart
So you [Em]build another [G]thrill
Until [C]this one falls apart

So walk [C]with me [G]into the [Em]fire    [D]
Come on, [C]follow me[G] close[D] behind

So we'll [G]go where they [C]won't know
Our secr[G]ets and [C]sorrows
We should l[G]eave while we [D]can
And be [Em]gone by tom[D]orrow
Can't you [G]see how the [C]second hand turns? [D]
We should [G]go while the [C]candle still [G]burns

Have you[C] ever   [Em]        let [C]another put out your flam[Em]e?
And have you [C]ever  [Em]     said "I'm a [C]fool to stay in the [Em]same place"?   [D]

So we'll [G]go where they [C]won't know
Our secr[G]ets and [C]sorrows
We should l[G]eave while we [D]can
And be [Em]gone by tom[D]orrow
          [G]           [C]                  [D]        <
Can't you see how the second hand turns?

So we'll [G]go where they [C]won't know
Our secr[G]ets and [C]sorrows
We should l[G]eave while we [D]can
And be [Em]gone by tom[D]orrow
Can't you [G]see how the s[C]econd hand [D]turns?
We should [G]go while the [C]candle still [G]burns

Said, we should [G]go while the [C]candle still [G]burns
