First Verse

G5
Stop the clocks, it’s amazing

Csus2
You should see the way the light dances off your head

Dsus4                  Em7                Csus2
A million colours of hazel, golden and red

G5
Saturday morning is fading

Csus2
The sun’s reflected by the coffee in your hand

Dsus4                        Em7            Csus2
My eyes are caught in your gaze all over again

PRE CHORUS

Csus2
We were love drunk, waiting on a miracle

G5                    Dsus4
Tryna to find ourselves in the winter snow

Csus2                                      G5  Dsus4
So alone in love like the world had disappeared

Csus2
Oh, I won’t be silent and I won’t let go

G5                       Dsus4
I will hold on tighter ’til the afterglow

Csus2                                         G5  Dsus4
And we’ll burn so bright ’til the darkness softly clears

CHORUS

Csus2                   G5  Dsus4
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

Csus2                   G5
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

VERSE 2

G5
The weather outside’s changing

Csus2
The leaves are buried under six inches of white

Dsus4              Em7          Csus2
The radio is playing, Iron & Wine

G5
This is a new dimension

Csus2
This is a level where we’re losing track of time

Dsus4                   Em7                      Csus2
I’m holding nothing against it, except you and I

PRE CHORUS

Csus2
We were love drunk, waiting on a miracle

G5                    Dsus4
Trying to find ourselves in the winter snow

Csus2                                      G5  Dsus4
So alone in love like the world had disappeared

Csus2
Oh, I won’t be silent and I won’t let go

  G5                       Dsus4
I will hold on tighter ’til the afterglow

  Csus2                                         G5  Dsus4
And we’ll burn so bright ’til the darkness softly clears

CHORUS

Csus2                   G5   Dsus4
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

Csus2                   G5   Dsus4
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

Csus2   Let ring…
Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow
