[Verse 1]
A Em7
over the sea and far away
A
she's waiting like an iceberg
Em7
waiting to change
A
but she's cold inside
G
she wants to be like the water
D Dsus2 Dsus4 Dsus2
A Em7 A
all the muscles tighten in her face
Em7 A
buries her soul in one embrace
G
they're one and the same
just like the water
[Chorus]
D Bm
the fire fades away
G
most of every day
G/F# Em7
is full of tired excuses
A D
but it's too hard to say
Bm
i wish it was simple
G
but we give up easily
G/F# Em7 A
you're close enough to see that
Bm A G A
you're the other side of the world to me
D Dsus2 Dsus4 Dsus2
[Verse 2]
A Em7
on comes the panic light
A Em7
holding on with fingers and feelings alike
A
but the time has come
G
to move along
[Chorus]
D Bm
the fire fades away
G
most of every day
G/F# Em7
is full of tired excuses
A D
but it's too hard to say
Bm
i wish it was simple
G
but we give up easily

you're close enough to see that
Bm A G A
you're the other side of the world to me
[Bridge]
Em7
can you help me
Gm D Dsus2 Dsus4 Dsus2
can you let me go
Em Bm
and can you still love me
A G G/F# Em7 D
when you can't see me anymore
[Chorus]
D Bm
the fire fades away

most of every day

i wish it was simple
G
but we give up easily

you're close enough to see that

you're the other side of the world to me
