E
I remember being kissed
      A               E
When love was just a wish
C#m              A
Time was on our side
      E               B
And death was just a myth
 E
Well I got to wishing
        A                 B
And I felt the weight of time
     C#m         A           E
Then love came around and I died

[Chorus]
 A                  E
How do you get 'em back
           B              C#m
When they say this is the last time?
 A                  E
How do you make it last
              B
When they're gone?
    A                    E
And how do you fuel the fire
                       B           C#m
When they are pouring water on the wood?
 A
How do you get 'em
 B                       E
How do you get 'em back?

[Verse]
              E
If you got a lover who failed you
       A                   E
Don't mean they're worth leaving
      B                 C#m
Some lovers would never hurt you
       A                   B
Don't mean they're worth keeping
         C#m           A
I ain't saying I was right
       C#m            A
But I know we ain't wrong
           F#m       B               E
And I'm breaking my back to get you home

[Chorus]
 A                  E
How do you get 'em back
           B              C#m
When they say this is the last time?
 A                  E
How do you make it last
              B
When they're gone?
    A                    E
And how do you fuel the fire
                       B           C#m
When they are pouring water on the wood?
 A
How do you get 'em
 B                       E
How do you get 'em back?

[Bridge]
          A            B
And I'm losing my mind
           C#m
'Cause I'm losing my girl
           A           B       C#m
She's a delicate flower in a desolate world
           A           B
And I'm losing my mind
             C#m
'Cause I'm losing my girl
           A           B       C#m
She's a delicate flower in a desolate world

[Chorus]
     A                  B     C#m
Oh how do you get 'em back?
     A                   B    C#m
And how do you make it last?
    A                    B
And how do you fuel the fire
  C#m
How do you fuel the fire
  A                   B
How do you fuel the fire?
A                   E
How do you get 'em back
          B            C#m
When they say it's the last time?
 A                  E                 B
How do you make it last when they're gone?
