I believe you have to tune the guitar in Eb.. I'm not too sure, try to play along with
the song!
Intro: C, D, G, C
C D G
Oh,C light a candle's fire, it carries our good name
What would you ask a campfiCre? D
It scaGres me just the same C
And you, youC've had it all along D
An endGless need for games C
C D G
Just dCon't forget, a candle's fire is only just a flame
C, D, G, C
(same as the first verse)
I hit certain from afar, failed to pull my weight
But you were light, we traveled through the fall
To arrive at our front gate
Tonight, we rest beside the fire
A smile upon your face
Just don't forget, a candle's fire is only just a flame
then the verse ends on C, it keeps it going for a while, then G.. and then the kick-ass
epic brasses part should be something like this:
Am If I had knownD, that to carry on tGhat way C
Am It wouldn't show in Dthe creases on youGr face C
Am If you should go, wouDld you carry on my namGe? C
Am D G
JusCt let it blow, and the blah blah blah blah blaaah(what does he say??)
then Am, D, G, C till the end (note: if the second part doesn't sound right to your ear,
play C chords instead of Am chords)
I hope you'll find this useful!
