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.
