Verse 1
G                           Em 
we used to act like we were ten years old
G                          Em
sittin' on rooftops in the morning cold
G                     D
and we pointed at the city,
Em                       C
though we'd never be so bold
A                      D
and all i needed was a hand to hold.
G                         Em
it's a somewhat addictive state of mind
G                               Em
to always be hoping for another glimpse inside
G               D             Em                 C
and even though i know you're telling everybody else
A D
i can still think that i heard it first.

Chorus
G         B         Em   C         
Because I need a friend and i can pretend
G    B               Em  C
that you might need one too.
G            B             Em         C
Because I've done too much traveling alone
G           B        Em       C
and I'm too goddamn far from home.
G                  D        Em                   C
I think I'm mostly flesh. I think you're mostly bone.
G    C       Em      D              G
I am made of fire; you're made of stone.

Verse 2
G                                 Em
i thought you might be my someone in the sand.
G
i thought i might be something you needed
Em
like a good friend.
G                     D
but you can keep your distance,
Em            C
i guess i'll understand.
A                     D
no one really wants a fire on their hands.

Bridge
C
So let's climb the flagpole!
C                             G
See how high we get before we fall.
C
Let's meet in the belltower.
C                              G
If we can ever get up there at all.
Em                          C/G
And we can watch the gears turn.
Em                                    C/G
Because a stone will crack before it burns.
A                  D
Still a fire never learns.
