FACE THE FIRE
By: Dan Fogelberg
Key: Am
2 6 6 6-5 -5 -4 5 -56 6
I hear the thun-der three miles a-way
2 6 6 6-5 -5 -5 5 -4-3 -3
The is-land’s leak-ing in-to the bay
2 -5 6 6 6 -5 -5
The poi-son is spread-ing
-1 -4 5 -5 6
The de-mon is free
2 -5 6 6 6 -5 -5
And peo-ple are run-ning from
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 -3
What they can’t ev-en see.
6 6 6-5-5 -55 -4 5 -56 6
Face the fi-re you can’t run a-way
2 6 6 6 -5 -5
The risk grows great-er
-5 -5 6 -5 -55
With each pass-ing day
2 6 6 6-5-5
The wait-ing’s ov-er
3 -4 5 -5 6
The mo-ment has come
2 6 6 6-5-5 5-4 -4 4 -4 -3
To kill the fi-re and turn to the sun.
2 6 6 6-5 -5
They’ll take your mon-ey
-55 -4 5 -56 6
And then take your health
2 6 6 6-5 -5 -5
To line their pock-ets with
-5 5 -4-3 -3
Un-e-qualed wealth
2 -56 6 6-5 -5
These men are un-der
-1 -4 4 -5 6
The pow-er of gold
2 -56 6 6-5 -5 -5 -56
We won’t be safe un-til we
-5 5 -4 -3
Shut them down cold.
6 6 6-5-5 -55 -4 5 -56 6
Face the fi-re you can’t run a-way
2 6 6 6 -5 -5
The risk grows great-er
-5 -5 6 -5 -55
With each pass-ing day
2 6 6 6-5-5
The wait-ing’s ov-er
3 -4 5 -5 6
The mo-ment has come
2 6 6 6-5-5 5-4 -4 4 -4 -3
To kill the fi-re and turn to the sun.
6 6 6-5-5 -5 -4 4 -4 -332
Kill the fi-re and turn to the sun
2 6 6 6 -5 -5 -55 -4 5 -56 6
The peo-ple came to the cap-i-tol town
2 6 6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5
One hun-dred thous-and of them
-5 5 -4-3 -3
Laid their hearts down
2 -5 6 6 6-5 -5
They screamed in an-ger
-1 -4 5 -5 6
And broad-cast their fears
-5 6 6 6 -5 -5
Just to have them
-5 5 -4 -3
Fall on deaf ears.
