Intro
Mm
Mm-hmm
Oh-oh
Verse 1
Woke up on the cold side of the morning
Chrome light bleeding through the blinds
I built this whole house on a warning
Now I'm counting every crack I find
Pre-Chorus
Hold the wire
Hold it till it sings
Closer to the fire
Closer to everything
Chorus
We burn slow in the afterglow
Rise up from the river below
We burn slow let the wild winds blow
Carry me where I belong
Drop
Go
Go
Wide awake
Go
Verse 2
Pressed my name into the ash and gravel
Let the thunder write the rest
Every ghost I used to travel
Settled low inside my chest
Pre-Chorus
Hold the wire
Hold it till it rings
Closer to the fire
Closer to the kings
Chorus
We burn slow in the afterglow
Rise up from the river below
We burn slow let the wild winds blow
Carry me where I belong
Bridge
Maybe I'm drifting
Maybe I'm gold
Maybe the night keeps the story untold
(Backing: carry me carry me)
Maybe I'm burning
Maybe I'm home
Drop
Go
Go
Wide awake
Go
Chorus
We burn slow in the afterglow
Rise up from the river below
We burn slow let the wild winds blow
Carry me where I belong
