[Intro]
C G F C G F C
[Verse 1]
G F C
I had a slow burn for you darling
G F C
We were walking by the river
G F C
I was young and a fool, darling
G F C
I didn't know about forever
[Verse 2]
G F C
We took a train to Vermont, darling
G F C
We skied the mountains in the west
G F C
And all the while the fire smouldered
G F Eb
I felt it burning in my chest
[Verse 3]
F C Eb
We were walking by the ocean
F C Eb
On the coast of California
F C
I felt that I should tell you something
F G C
But then the moment passed
[Verse 4]
G F C
Life went on for us, darling
(I was never very far)
G F C
We went our separate ways
(But I had to stay away)
G F C
I very seldom thought of you, darling
(Hard to remember)
G F Eb
The past was all a haze
[Verse 5]
F C Eb
Then I saw you in the city
(Couldn't believe my eyes)
F C Eb
Your eyes lit up and so did mine
(There was so much to say)
F C F
We walked together by the reservoir
(Hold my hand)
G C
And shared a glass of wine
[Verse 6]
G F C
The time has passed away, darling
G F C
I thought the flame was burning out
G F C
I had my life to live, darling
G F Eb
Could I let go of any doubt
[Verse 7]
F C Eb
When I saw you that day in the city
(Memories floated back)
F C Eb
I suffered such a surprise
(It all was such a surprise)
F C F
The fire was lit and the slow burn started
G C
Had it never died
[Verse 8]
G F C
Now there's a slow burn, darling
(Just like there'd been before)
G F C
Like a sweet and smoky song
(A longing in our hearts)
G F C
And what I didn't know, darling
(Maybe this was meant to be)
G F
Was that your love was never gone
[Outro]
C
I have a slow burn
Am
I have a slow burn
G
I have a slow burn
C
For you
C
I have a slow burn
Am
I have a slow burn
G
I have a slow burn
C
For you
