[Intro]

F Bb F                                                   
■ ■  ■ True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree
                                        Bb
A willow dancing on air before covering me
                 Bb      
Under cotton and calicoes
                        F  
Over canopy dapple long ago
                  F                               
True that love in withdrawal was the weeping of me
                                               Bb  
That the sound of the saw must be known by the tree
                      Bb            
Must be felled for to fight the cold
                                 F  
I fretted fire but that was long ago


[Chorus]
         Dm  Bb F      
And it's not ■  tonight
              Dm     Bb
Where I'm set alight ■ 
F                Dm    C
■ And I blink in sight ■
Bb                       
■  Of your blinding light
F                   Bb
Oh it's not tonight ■ 
F                        
■ Where you hold me tight
Dm    Bb F          Dm     C
Light ■  ■ the fire bright ■
Bb                     
Oh let it blaze alright
F             Bb      F 
Oh but you're good to me
   Bb               
Oh you're good to me
F             Bb         F   
Oh but you're good to me baby

[Verse]
                     F                             
With the roar of the fire my heart rose to its feet
                                        Bb  
Like the ashes of ash I saw rise in the heat
Bbmaj7                         
Settle soft and as pure as snow
                                  F  
I fell in love with the fire long ago
                     F                         
With each love I cut loose I was never the same
                                               Bb   
Watching still living roots be consumed by the flame
Bbmaj7                          
I was fixed on your hand of gold
                          Csus4 F  
Laying waste to my lovin' long  ago
               Dm      Bb
But that's not tonight ■ 


[Chorus]
F               Dm     Bb F
■ Where I'm set alight ■  ■
               Dm    C Bb
And I blink in sight ■ ■ 
                 Bb   
Of your blinding light
F               Dm      Bb
Oh and it's not tonight ■ 
F                   Dm    Bb F
■ Where you hold me tight ■  ■
               Dm     C
Light the fire bright ■
Bb                           
Oh let it blaze alright honey
   F   Bb F        Bb        
Oh but ■  ■ you're good to me
          F         
Oh you're good to me
              Bb         Dm  
Oh but you're good to me baby

[Bridge]
F                                                  
So in awe there I stood as you licked off the grain
                                                 Bb   
Though I've handled the wood I still worship the flame
                 Bb         
Long as amber of ember glows
                                     F  
All the would that I'd loved is long ago


[Chorus]
             Dm      Bb
But it's not tonight ■ 
F               Dm     Bb
■ Where I'm set alight ■ 
F                Dm    C
■ And I blink in sight ■
Bb                    
Of your blinding light
F               Dm      Bb
Oh and it's not tonight ■ 
F                  Dm    Bb
■ When you hold me tight ■ 
F                Dm    
■ Light the fire bright
C Bb                     
■ Oh let it blaze alright
   F   Bb             F 
Oh but you're good to me
          Bb        
Oh you're good to me
F      Bb             F 
Oh but you're good to me
Bb F        Bb        
Oh ■ you're good to me
F      Bb   F    
You're good to me
       Bb                F   
Oh but you're good to me baby
