The Veils - Sit Down by the Fire

      Intro:

E - E


Verse:

E                                      C#m
   Born from the night in the roaring wind
                 A                      E
Cast out of the shadows by an unknown hand
                                     C#m
Warmed by the light of these falling limbs
              A                         E 
Drunk on the sadness of a universe unmanned
                                C#m
Across the water she clings to me
                  A                       E
and in the rising calm I feel her at my side
                                         C#m
My father's singing in the fallin' leaves
                      A                       E
about the complicated beauty of a river run dry.


Refrain:

C#m                   A
    Sit down by the fire
         E
Sit down by the fire


Verse:

E
    It's hard to say
                      C#m
but I think you'd better
                    A
just say you don't love me
                      E
you don't love me anymore

I been waiting in line
                   C#m
now I know I'll never
               A
Overcome this madness
                         E
if I don't know for sure
                                 C#m
Across the water she clings to me
                     A
and in the light of dawn
                   E
I see her at my side
                                        C#m
My father's singing in the fallin' leaves
                                A
there's no way out of this old world even if you try


Refrain:

C#m                           A
    So just sit down by the fire
          E
sit down by the fire
C#m                              A           E
    there ain't no way to get what I want
C#m                   A
    Sit down by the fire
              E
oh, sit down by the fire
C#m                              A           E - E - F#m
    There ain't no way to get what I want


Bridge:

          E - E - F#m
Some day
                             E - E - F#m
a little rain is bound to fall
          E - E - F#m
Some day
                             E - E - F#m

        E - F#m
Some day


Verse:

E                                C#m
Over my head my heart and my feet
             A 
I'm drawn insane
                       E
you know I need you now
                                 C#m
Over my head my heart and my feet
             A C#m
I'm drawn insane


Refrain:

                 A
Sit down by the fire love
         E
sit down by the fire
C#m                              A          E
    there ain't no way to get what I want
C#m                    A
    Sit down by the fire love
         E
sit down by the fire
C#m                              A          E
    there ain't no way to get what I want.

        C#m                            A            E
Oooohoho, there ain't no way to get what I want.
