The E chord is version 8

Verse 1

it's not a

silly little moment

It's not the

storm before the

calm

This is the d

eep and dying breath of

This

love that we've been

working on

Can't seem to

hold you like I want to

So I can

feel you in my

arms

Nobody's

going to come and save you

pulled too many

false alarms

Chorus

We're going

down

And you can

see it,

too

We're going

down

And you k

now that we're d

oomed

My d

ear, we're slow dancing in a

burning

room

Verse 2

I was the

one you always dreamed of

You were the

one I tried to

draw

How dare you

say it's nothing to me?

Baby, you're the only

light I ever

saw

I'll make the

most of all the sadness

You'll be a

*****, because you

can

You try to

hit me, just to hurt me

So you leave me feeling dirty

'Cause you

can't understan

Chorus

We're going

down

And you can

see it,

too

We're going

down

And you k

now that we're d

oomed

My d

ear, we're slow dancing in a

burning

room

instrumental

Bridge

cry about it, why don't

you?

cry about it, why don't

you?

cry about it, why don't

you?

Chorus

dear, we're slow dancing in a

burning

room

Outro

Don't you think we ought to

know by now?

Don't you think we should have

learned

somehow?

Don't you think we ought to

know by now?

Don't you think we should have

learned

somehow?

Don't you think we ought to

know by now?

Don't you think we should have

learned s

omehow?
