Light a Roman Candle With Me

E            G#m           C#m        G#m
Light a roman candle with me
E            G#m       C#m            G#m
Just a roman candle, you can wear your sandals
    A                  G#m          F#m G#m
and I'll pour you just one cup of tea
     A              G#m
Then you can go and rest
    F#m              G#m
you haven't seen my best, so...


E             G#m         C#m         G#m
Just spend an evening with me
E            G#m     C#m              G#m
Just a lazy evening, then you could be leaving
   A                G#m               F#m    G#m
or we could stay and talk until three
A                 G#m            F#m         G#m
I will think it's magic and I'll hope you'll agree, so...


E            G#m           C#m        G#m
Light a roman candle with me
E            G#m
Just a roman candle
C#m            G#m    E
Just a perfect apple

E            G#m           C#m        G#m
Light a roman candle with me
E            G#m
Just a roman candle
C#m            G#m   E* F#m* G#m*
Just a perfect apple
A          G#m        F#m          G#m       A
If we were honest and both wrote a sonnet together
    G#m         F#m         G#m
a sandwich with everything on it,
   E             G#m           C#m            G#m
at least we would know that the sparks didn't glow
       E          G#m         C#m
but we owe it to ourselves to try,
      G#m         A
so we aim and ignite!
   G#m     F#m        G#m
So often I call and I plead with you:
     A     G#m
"Give me a chance!"
         F#m        G#m          E
It's not often that I understand
    G#m         C#m            G#m                    E
the ins and the outs of what's wrong and what's right
         G#m        C#m       G#m  E* F#m* G#m*
So don't think of tomorrow tonight


A     G#m           F#m          G#m
Oh, I know, it goes on, it gets old
        A         G#m             F#m          G#m
But for now we're young, we smell good, we're alone, so alive

E G#m C#m G#m
E G#m C#m G#m


     A         G#m
You look for a legend,
    F#m          G#m
I'm looking for common ground
     A             G#m
Your heart isn't breaking,
    F#m        G#m
and mine isn't making a sound

E G#m C#m G#m
E G#m C#m G#m
E* F#m* G#m*

A    G#m           F#m         G#m
Oh I know, it goes on, it gets old
A    G#m           F#m         G#m
Oh I know, it goes on, it gets old


E            G#m           C#m        G#m
Light a roman candle with me
E            G#m
Just a roman candle
C#m            G#m    E
Just a perfect apple
