Here is my attempt at this wonderful song by Grey Reverend and Bonobo. For

reference, I used the live

performance with the magnificent Szjerdene on the vocals

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0rvGKaHjJU).

The lyrics are a bit different in this one, but the chords should be similar

to the album version.

Pay attention to the second chorus, the chords are different there. Plus, the

live version omits the outro.

You can adjust the instrumental part, the alternative lyrics and the outro to

your liking, I guess. Enjoy!

Any corrections are welcome :)

[Intro]
Cm7 Ab Cm7 Bb Ab

[Verse 1]
Cm7 Ab
Now do you see it? The dream is gone
Cm7 Bb Ab
Fatal fire, moving on
Cm7 Ab
Why do you need it in the ways to come
Cm7 Bb Ab
Over you, the undertone

[Chorus]
Ab Bb Fm7
Honestly, I can’t believe it’s burning again
Gm7
Like the first fires
Ab Bb Fm7
Run from fences, you don’t have to pretend
Gm7
First fires

[Instrumental]
Cm7 Bb Ab

[Verse 2]
Cm7 Ab
And if you find it don’t let go
Cm7 Bb Ab
For a time keep it going
Cm7 Ab
Don’t even fight it, the leaves fall
Cm7 Bb Ab
Fall for me, for every blow (alternative: Over me, this heavy load)
