Intro
Am F Am F Dm E C
Am F (pause) Am C Am Dm E Am
Verse
Am Em
It starts with a spark a breath and a moment of still
Dm
A flicker a glow as the oxygen spills through a delta of spindles and stone
E
Kindled from nothing in a whisper of smoke
Am Em
And there a gift ignites a cursive thought takes flight
And there's a dancer twisting in between the spines
Dm E
Give her the breather's kiss and watch her spirit lift
F
She'll take over the stage and she'll own the night
Prechorus
Am G F
Learning how to make a name from the words we can't keep in
C Am G
Learning how to strike a flame and draw hellfire from nothing
Chorus
C Am Em
I don't know where to begin to make these words take shape
C Am F C
How to nurture a flame and raise it to a blaze
Am Em C
That on the clearest night can be seen forever
Am F C
I don't know where to begin begin again
Instrumental:
C Am Em C x2 (second time end with Am)
Verse
Am Em
It's not enough cause outside the night is still cold
Dm
The fog is collected on the sill
E
Feed the house to the fire to let out the light
Am
Consumed and inspired burned magnesium white
It spills from the hearth
Em Dm
Take the curtains the carpet to fuel the insatiable fire inside
E
We'll set fire to a hill so intense that it will be the brightest star
F
on this side of the sky
Pre-chorus
Am G F
Learning how to make a name from the words we can't keep in
C Am G
Learning how to strike a flame and draw hellfire from nothing

I don't know where to begin to make these words take shape
C Am F C
How to nurture a flame and raise it to a blaze
Am Em C
That on the clearest night can be seen forever

I don't know where to begin begin again
