 [VERSE ONE]
                       D 
 We were staring down disaster
                          Bm 
 That night, we almost called it quits
                                   G 
 You said that you were changing chapters
                                D 
 I said this can't be where it ends
 
                      D 
 Not even poetry can fix this
                          Bm
 Right now, we both need more than words
  Bm                          G
 If we give up, we're gonna miss this
  G                      D 
 Can we remember who we were
 
 [PRE CHORUS]
                Em 
 Standing on St. Brigid's Road
                   G 
 Where we finally let it go

 [CHORUS]
                          D 
 We held a funeral for heartache
                           Bm 
 We buried trouble in the grass
 Bm                        G 
 Wе didn't bother buying roses
    G                       D 
 'Cause wе ain't ever going back

                               D 
 I don't know nothing 'bout tomorrow
                  Bm 
 I barely know about today
                      G 
 We set a fire to our sorrow
                                 D
 And watched the hurt go up in flames
 
 [VERSE TWO]
  D
 Grief is such a solid promise
                             Bm 
 Joy just leaves you in the rain
                             
 Sadness waits down in the lobby
                       G 
 Solace stood you up again
  G 
 I'm thankful for the darkness
 G                      D 
 Everything that let me see
  D 
 So much beauty in the storm
  D 
 Like how you turn to me

 D 
 If I'm honest, you're the reason
                           Bm 
 That the light gets in at all
  Bm 
 You're the song that breaks the silence
 Bm                            G
 You're the smile at curtain call
 G
 I'm scared of who I'd be without you
                      D 
 Much more than you know
  D 
 If I seem strong, it's just a show

 And watched the hurt go up in flames
 
 [BRIDGE]

 Oh, no no

 We ain't never going back

 Oh, no no

 We ain't never going back

                                 D
 And watched the hurt go up in flames
