Em D Em Bm Em D C


[Verse 1]
 Am       Em                  D
In the beginning, there's a heat-wave
     G              Am
It's us from nothing
            Em                 D
I caught a red-eye, out to Bed-Stuy
    C
To get your lovin'


[Pre-Chorus 1]
          Am        Em
'Cause we got no secrets to tell
       D                    G
You know me like I know myself
           A
Well, it's alright
           Em
All of my time in the world
D                    C
I want you to be my one, girl
                    Am      Em
It's alright (it's alright)


[Chorus]
                 D                Em
If you were the first person on Earth
               Am              Em
We would be together when it ends
                 D               C
Started when we had no names or words
                        Am   Em
Finishing each other's sentences
         D          G
Nobody understands me
         Am       Em
Nobody like you do
                D              C
So if I'm the last one standing
                        Am         Em
I would wanna watch it burn with you


[Verse 2]
                D             G            Am
Because you're timeless, you see me clearly
           Em                   D
All of the violence turns to silence
     C
When you are near me


[Pre-Chorus 1]
        Am        Em
'Cause we got no secrets to tell
                           G
You know me like I know myself
            Am
Well, it's alright
           Em
All of my time in the world

I want you to be my one, girl

It's alright (it's alright)


[Chorus]
                 D                Em
If you were the first person on Earth
               Am              Em
We would be together when it ends
                 D               C
Started when we had no names or words
                        Am   Em
Finishing each other's sentences
         D          G
Nobody understands me
         Am       Em
Nobody like you do
                D              C
So if I'm the last one standing
                        Am         Em   C
I would wanna watch it burn with you


[Pre-Chorus 2]
                  Am  Em  C
And see it born anew
                  Am
'Cause we got no secrets to tell
                           C
You know me like I know myself

Well, it's alright
           Am
All of my time in the world
                     C
I want you to be my one, girl

It's alright (it's alright)


[Chorus]
N.C.                              G
If you were the first person on Earth

We would be together when it ends
                 D               C
Started when we had no names or words
                        Am   Em
Finishing each other's sentences
         D          G
Nobody understands me
         Am       Em
Nobody like you do
                D              C
So if I'm the last one standing
                        Am         Em   F#m Em
I would wanna watch it burn with you


[Outro]
                F#m               Em  D C
I would wanna watch it burn with you
                                  Em
I would wanna watch it burn with you
