Firewood Chords & Lyrics by Regina Spektor
Firewood
guitar chords lyrics
Capo 1
C
The piano is not firewood yet
F C Dm G
They try to remember but still they forget
C
That the heart beats in threes
C
Just like a waltz
F Dm
And nothing can stop you from dancing
C
Rise from your cold hospital bed
C7 F
I tell you, you're not dying
C Fm C Fsus2
Everyone knows you're going to live
C Am6/G G7
So you might as well start trying
C
The piano is not firewood yet
F C
But the cold does get cold
Dm G
So it soon might be that
C
I'll take it apart, call up my friends
F C Dm
And we'll warm up our hands by the fire
C
Don't look so shocked
Don't judge so harsh
C7
You don't know
F
You are only spying
C Fm C Fsus2
Everyone knows it's going to hurt
C Am6/G G7
But at least we'll get hurt trying
C
The piano is not firewood yet
F C
But a heart can't be helped
Dm G
And it gathers regret
C
Someday you'll wake up and feel a great pain
F C Dm G
And you'll miss every toy you ever owned
F C
You'll want to go back
You'll wish you were small
Dm C7 F
Nothing can slow the crying
C Fm Fsus2
You'll take the clock off of your wall
C G7 C
And you'll wish it was lying
F C
Love what you have and you'll have more love
C7 F
You're not dying
C Fm Fsus2
Everyone knows you're going to love
C G7 C
Though there's still no cure for crying
