Intro:F BbF
True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree
Willow dancinʼ on air before covering me
Bb
Under garden and calicos
F
Over canopy dabbled long ago
F
True that love in withdrawal was the weepinʼ of me
That the sound of the saw must be known by the tree
Bb
Must be felt ʼfore the fight, the call
F
Friendly fire, but that was long ago
Chorus:F Dm Bb F
But thatʼs not tonight (Oh, oh)
Dm Bb F
When Iʼm set alight (Oh, oh)
Dm C Bb
And I blink inside (Oh, oh)
Bb
Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
F Dm Bb F
Oh, thatʼs not tonight (Oh, oh)
Dm Bb F
When you hold me tight (Oh, oh)
Dm C Bb
All the fire bright (Oh, oh)
Bb
Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)
F Bb
Oh, hope that youʼre good to me,
F Bb
Oh, youʼre good to me (Oh, oh)
F Bb F Bb
Hope that youʼre good to me, baby (Oh, oh)
F
With the war of the fire, my heart moves to its feet
Like the ashes of ash, I saw eyes in the heat
Bb
Feel it soft and as pure as snow
F
Fell in love with the fire long ago
F
With each love I cut loose, I was never the same
Watching still-living roots be consumed by the flame
Bb
I was fixed on your hand of gold
F
Layinʼ waste to my lovinʼ long ago
Chorus:F Dm Bb F
But thatʼs not tonight (Oh, oh)
Dm Bb F
When Iʼm set alight (Oh, oh)
Dm C Bb
And I blink inside (Oh, oh)
Bb
Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
F Dm Bb F
Oh, thatʼs not tonight (Oh, oh)
Dm Bb F
When you hold me tight (Oh, oh)
Dm C Bb
All the fire bright (Oh, oh)
Bb
Oh, let it blaze alright, honey (Oh, oh)
F Bb
Oh, hope that youʼre good to me,
F Bb
Oh, youʼre good to me (Oh, oh)
F Bb Dm Bb Dm Bb
Hope that youʼre good to me, baby (Oh, oh)
F
So in awe there I stood as you licked off the grain
Though Iʼve handled the wood, I still worship the flame
Bb
Long as amber of ember glows
F
All the wood that Iʼd loved is long ago
Chorus:F Dm Bb F
But thatʼs not tonight (Oh, oh)
Dm Bb F
When Iʼm set alight (Oh, oh)
Dm C Bb
And I blink inside (Oh, oh)

Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
