Capo 6
[Verse 1]
G Gsus G
The piano is not firewood yet
C G Am D
They try to remember but still they forget
G
That the heart beats in threes
G
Just like a waltz
C G Am D
And nothing can stop you from dancing
[Verse 2]
C D G
Rise from your cold hospital bed
G7 C
I tell you, you're not dying
G Cm G Csus2 C(with high E string on third fret)* Csus2 C*
Everyone knows you're going to live
G G/F Em6/D D7
So you might as well start trying
[Verse 3]
G Gsus G
The piano is not firewood yet
C G
But the cold does get cold
Am D
So it soon might be that
G
I'll take it apart, call up my friends
C G Am D
And we'll warm up our hands by the fire
[Verse 4]
C D G
Don't look so shocked
Don't judge so harsh
G7
You don't know
C
You are only spying
G Cm G Csus2 C* Csus2 C*
Everyone knows it's going to hurt
G G/F Em6/D D7
But at least we'll get hurt trying

[Verse 5]
G Gsus G
The piano is not firewood yet
C G
But a heart can't be helped
Am D
And it gathers regret
G
Someday you'll wake up and feel a great pain
C G Am D
And you'll miss every toy you ever owned
[Verse 6]
C D G
You'll want to go back
You'll wish you were small
G7 Csus C
Nothing can slow the crying
G Cm G Csus2 C* Csus2 C*
You'll take the clock off of your wall
G G/F Em6/D D7
And you'll wish it was lying
[Verse 7]
C D G
Love what you have and you'll have more love
G7 C
You're not dying
G Cm G Csus2 C* Csus2 C*
Everyone knows you're going to love
G G/F Em6/D D7
Though there's still no cure for crying
