Intro:
[C Csus2 Am Csus2] x2

Verse 1:

    C                            Csus2
The candles on the table lit you up,
      Am               Csus2    
And I wondered if we'd done enough.
    C                               Csus2
The blackout came to slow down everyone
       Am                        Csus2
And it spoke to us, said "you've had your fun".

Verse 2:

    C                              Csus2
The autumn in your eyes, it lit me up.
        Am                      Csus2
I was a fallen leaf, you were a firework.
     C                               Csus2
When winter came, I tried to keep us warm
         Am                       Csus2    
At least warmer than... than we'd been before.

Chorus:

       F   C    Csus2        F   C    Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.
       F   C    Csus2        F   C    Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.

Verse 3:

  C                                  Csus2
I pulled you close to me and soon forgot
            Am                        Csus2    
About those heavy hearts, about those other ones.
    C                               Csus2
The blackout came to slow down everything
          Am                         Csus2
That we'd come to know, we still had songs to sing.

Chorus:

       F   C    Csus2        F   C    Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.
       F   C    Csus2        F   C    Csus2
On our way back home, on our way back home.

Outro:

    C                            Csus2
The candles on the table lit you up,
      Am               Csus2 
And I wondered if we'd done enough.
