Tom : A
[Intro] A Asus4
A
We call them cool
Asus4 A
Those hearts that have no scars to show
F#m D
The ones that never do let go
Bm E D C# Bm
And risk the tables being turned
A
We call them fools
Asus4 A
Who have to dance within the flame
F#m D
Who chance the sorrow and the shame
Bm E D C# Bm
That always comes with getting burned
F#m E/G#
But you got to be tough
D A
When consumed by desire
F#m E/G# D
E ( A Asus4 )
Cause its not enough just to stand outside the fire
A
We call them strong
Asus4 A
Those who can face this world alone
F#m D
Who seem to get by on their own.
Bm E D C# Bm
Those who will never take the fall
A
We call them weak
Asus4 A
Who are unable to resist
F#m D
The slightest chance love might exist
Bm E D C# Bm
And for that forsake it all
F#m E/G#
They`re so hell bent on giving
D A
Walking a wire
F#m E/G#
Convinced it`s not living
D E A
when you stand outside the fire
[Refrão]
D E A
Standing outside the fire
D E A
Standing outside the fire
F#m E/G# A D
Life is not tried, it is merely survived
Bm E A
If you`re standing outside the fire
[Próxima Parte]
D
There`s this love that is burning
C#m
Deep in my soul
Bm A
Constantly yearning to get out of control
D
Wanting to fly
C#m
Higher and higher
Bm C#m D E
I can`t abide standing outside
The fire
( A Asus4 )
[Trecho 2x 2x]
[Refrão] (repetir)
