Grapevine Fires Death Cab For Cutie Narrow Stairs Capo 3 Standard Tuning All chords in relation to capo --------- -Verse 1- --------- When the wind picked up the fire spread And the grapevines seemed left for dead And the Northern sky looked like the end of days The end of days The wake-up call to a rented room Sounded like an alarm of impending doom C G (hold twice as long) To warn us it's only a matter of time -------- -Chorus- -------- Before we all burn Before we all burn Before we all burn (hold ) Before we all burn --------- -Verse 2- --------- We bought some wine and some paper cups Near your daughters school when we picked her up And drove to a cemetery on a hill On a hill And we watched the plumes paint the sky gray But she laughed and danced through the field of graves And there I knew it would be alright That everything -------- -Chorus- -------- Would be alright Would be alright Would be alright (hold ) Would be alright -------- -Bridge- -------- And the news reports on the radio Said it was getting worse As the ocean air fanned the flames But I couldn't think Of anywhere I would of rather been To watch it all burn away -------- -Chorus- -------- To burn away (hold ) (hold ) ------- -Outro- ------- And the firemen worked in double shifts With prayers for rain on their lips (fade) And they knew it was only a matter of time
