This song is from the album Halcyon Days(2014), released on 01 January 2014.
I loved the energy and the performance by Ellie in this song. The rhythm felt powerful and energetic, while the guitars and the synths added even more power to the song. The lyrics were well written and made the song really interesting to listen to. I loved the way that she sang the verses, they were really beautiful and executed perfectly. However, the bass and the background music could have been improved, maybe a few grooves here and there would have made a huge impact on this song.
SongRating: 8.5/10

[INTRO] Gm F Eb F Gm Bb C D
[VERSE]
Gm                           F
Breathe your smoke into my lungs,
Gm                               F
In the back of a car with you I stare into the sun,
Gm                         F
Still not too old to die young,

[PRE-CHORUS]
            Eb     Bb         F
But lovers hold on to everything,
            Eb  Bb        F
And lovers hold on to anything

[CHORUS]
Cm             Eb                Gm
I chase your love around a figure 8,
            F
I need you more than I can take,
Cm          Eb             Gm
You promise forever and a day,
              F            Cm Eb Gm
And then you take it all away,
               F            Cm Eb Gm F
And then you take it all away

[VERSE]
Gm                        F
Place a kiss on my cheekbone,
Gm                       F
When you vanish me, I'm buried in the snow,
Gm                                F
But something tells me I'm not alone,

[PRE-CHORUS]
            Eb     Bb         F
But lovers hold on to everything,
            Eb  Bb        F
And lovers hold on to anything

[CHORUS]
Cm             Eb                Gm
I chase your love around a figure 8,
            F
I need you more than I can take,
Cm          Eb             Gm
You promise forever and a day,
              F            Cm Eb Gm
And then you take it all away,
               F            Cm Eb Gm F
And then you take it all away

[CHORUS]
Cm             Eb                Gm
I chase your love around a figure 8,
            F
I need you more than I can take,
Cm          Eb             Gm
You promise forever and a day,
              F            Cm Eb Gm
And then you take it all away,
               F            Cm
And then you take it all away
