Hey, Cage The Elephant fans! A new single from the upcoming album came out a few days ago!
I personally really enjoy and I searched up the chords to it! And as I guess I'm not the only one who'd
like to sing it along with their guitar I share it with y'all! Have fun, guys! :D

Chords after the bass line:

Em B


[Verse]

Em                             B
Oh, my precious ember burning, my sweet glowing light
         C                      B
From the moment I first saw you I was yours and you were mine
Em                                 B
   Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design
        C                          B
And the echo of my mother's words, baby don't you play with fire


[Pre-Chorus]

Em    D
I was always playing the part
Em         D
First love only set by a spark
Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind


[Chorus]

(B)                Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell, trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire
           Em               C
No turning back, nowhere to run
           D          B 
Nowhere to hide, it's too late to say goodbye
Em                C                    D              B
Push back from my heart, wish we could go back to the start
          Em           C             D
But oh my God, is this real, no more time
     B
It's too late, it's too late to say goodbye


[Intro bass line]


[Verse]

Em                              B
I can hear the sounds of sirens circling around
C                                   B
Forced to watch the ashes floating, softly drifting to the ground
Em                               B
   Deep down we both knew it was trouble by design
        C                          B
And the echo of my mother's words, baby don't you play with fire


[Pre-Chorus]

Em    D
I was always playing the part
Em         D
First love only set by a spark
Em        D                  B
There was no way changing my mind


[Chorus]

(B)                Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell, trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire
           Em               C
No turning back, nowhere to run
           D          B
Nowhere to hide, it's too late to say goodbye
Em                C                    D              B
Push back from my heart, wish we could go back to the start
          Em           C             D
But oh my God, is this real, no more time
     B
It's too late, it's too late, it's too late to say goodbye


[Solo]

Em  C  D  B  x2


[Bridge]

C             D                B             C
After all the dust has settled we can settle down
C               D           B            C
Just the two of us forever, no one else around
B            C
No one else around
 B
around


[Chorus]

(B)                Em                  C
Now I'm under your spell, trapped in a lie
               D                       B
Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire
           Em               C
No turning back, nowhere to run
           D          B
Nowhere to hide, it's too late to say goodbye
Em                C                    D              B
Push back from my heart, wish we could go back to the start
          Em        C             D
But oh my God, no escape, no more time
     B
It's too late, it's too late, it's too late to say goodbye
