The Light You Burned Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]CHOR[C]US[G][C]
[G][E]
[C][Am]
I thought we [C]had,
[G]Such a good thing goi[Am]ng,
Now the light you [C]burned,
[G]Is dying out so slowly

[Verse 2]
[Am]VERSE 1: PRESSURE
[C]For starters,
aint heartless I don't hate them,
But I was starving and par[D]ted our relations,
[E]I never live in the past like the forsaken,
I was ill, you were never
the master of your [D]patience,
[C]We were martyrs for this mayhem,
Now you're passing your ass out to artists
as re[E]placements,
I know it's harder to father
than to make friends,
But you see I'm proud regardless
where my [D]day end[C]s,
It was a [Am]task to ask you just to [D]pay rent,
[C]And you laughed cause my heart
was in the basement,
[E]Never tar[C]geted the market
just to make ends,
Wasn't all scars there were parts
of it that [Am]made sense,
[C]Walking away were the hardest
conversations,
Hope you learned if you're smart
you shouldn't [E]date friends,
And I still don't understand you,
So I gotta say fuck you, thank you
[D]CHORUS

[Verse 3]
[Am]
I thought we had,
[C]Man I thought that we had[G],
Such a good thing [Am]going,
But we don't, but we don't,
but we don‘t,
Now the light you [C]burned,
Now the light that you burned,
[G]Is dying out so slowly,
[Am]And we go, and we go, and we go

[Verse 4]
VERSE [C]2: TRIALS
Must be hard trying to keep the facade,
Here we are, you nothing,
me [D]needing a laugh,
[E]Went from driving to not
even a seat in the car,
Still lying now to kissing
every cheek of my [D]ass,
From family [C]tree,
to just another leaf in the park,
Hope those bright ideas
help you see in the dark,
[E]It's like first, you say something,
second, you blame others,
Third burn the bridge like
the first Rage [C]cover,

[Verse 5]
But they don't know and they never will
what we've been through,
It's not you, it's [E]me, nah it's you,
I got a [C]lot of love for things you did,
If it only added up to all the
things you missed,
Guess that's it,
heard that you were running with him,
Saw you settled down now
and had a couple of kids,
[E]Shit the world keeps
spinning like a bottle top,
See the light you burned started
something that I aint [C]gonna stop
[Am]CHORUS

[Verse 6]
I thought we [C]had,
Man I thought that we [G]had,
Such a good thing [Am]go ing,
But we don't, but we don't,
but we don‘t,
Now the light you [C]burned,
Now the light that you burned,
[G]Is dying out so slowly,
[Am]And we go, and we go, and we go

[Verse 7]
[C]VERSE 3: SUFFA
What a soulful old anthem,
You used to burn brighter now you [D]couldn't
hold a lighter to a [E]lantern,
Went from fighter to a phantom,
Invited inside of my life but
you a [C]bantam,
Weight, with some heavyweight issues,
Had to separate with you, get
you heavy [D]grade tissues,
[C]For all[E] your mood swings,
so not amusing,
You could blow the [D]rock
out a [C]mood ring,
You can blow the rocks
and the tubing,
You can go super hoe
the block for a shoestring,
[D]Budget for all[E] I care and this is what I got,
For all my caring? So [D]fuck it,
Nah I aint [Am]sleeping on the [C]couch,
you can sleep on the carpet,
I'm a take the bed
and sleep like a starfish,
Hog all the blankets,
and [E]sleep off the lagers,
And wake up in the morning like
[Am]we feeling marvelous

[Verse 8]
CHORUS I thought we had,
[C]
Man I thought that we [G]had,
Such a good thing [Am]go ing,
But we don't, but we don't,
but we don‘t,
Now the light you [C]burned,
Now the light that you burned,
[G]Is dying out so [Am]slowly,
And we go, and we go, and we go,
[C]
[G][Am]
[C]
[G][Am]
I thought we had,
[C]Man I thought that we had[G],
Such a good thing [Am]going,
But we don't, but we don't,
but we don‘t,
Now the [A]light you [Am]burned,[C]
Now the light that you [G]burned,
Is dying out so [Am]slowly,
And we go, and we go,

[Outro 1]
and we go
