Lyrics

We are dead to rights, born and raised.

We are thick and thin till our last days.

So (Em7)hold me close and I’ll sur (C)ren der to your (G)heart.

You know how to give and how to take.

You see ev ’ry hope I locked a way.

So (Em7)pull me close and sur (C)ren der to my (G)heart.

Be fore the (Em)flame goes (D)out to night

yeah, we’ll (C)live un (G)til we (D)die.

So, (Em)come on, come on, come on, won’t you turn my (G)soul

in to a (D)rag ing fire?

(Em)Come on, come on, come on, till we lose con (G)trol

in to a (D)rag ing fire,

in to a (D)rag ing fire.

(Em)Come on, come on, come on, won’t you turn my (G)soul

in to a rag ing (G)fire?

You know (G)time will give and time will take.

All the mem ’ries made will wash a way.

E ven (Em7)though we’ve changed,

(C)I’m still here with (G)you.

If you lis ten close, you’ll hear the sound of all the ghosts that bring us down.

Hold (C)on to what makes you (G)feel.

Don’t let go, it’s what makes you real.

If the (Em)flame goes (D)out to night,

yeah, we’ll (C)live un (G)til we (D)die.

So, (Em)Come on, come on, come on, won’t you turn my (G)soul

in to a (D)rag ing fire?

(Em)Come on, come on, come on, till we lose con (G)trol

in to a (D)rag ing fire,

in to a (D)rag ing fire.

(Em)Come on, come on, come on, won’t you turn my (G)soul

in to a rag ing (G)fire?

Let the (Em)world leave (D)us be (G)hind.

Let your (C)heart beat (G)next to (D)mine,

’fore the (Em)flame goes (D)out to (G)night.

We can (C)live un (G)til we (D)die.

(Em)Come on, come on, come on, won’t you turn my (G)soul

in to a (D)rag ing fire?

(D)rag ing fire.
