 C 
The piano is not firewood yet
 F                     C                       Dm                 G 
They try to remember but still they forget
 C 
That the heart beats in threes
 C 
Just like a waltz
 F                                                         Dm 
And nothing can stop you from dancing
 C 
Rise from your cold hospital bed
                         C7                 F 
I tell you, you're not dying
 C               Fm                     C               F2 
Everyone knows you're going to live
 C                                                 Am6/G     G7 
So you might as well start trying
 C 
The piano is not firewood yet
 F                                           C 
But the cold does get cold
 Dm                                     G 
So it soon might be that
 C 
I'll take it apart, call up my friends
                     F                       C                       Dm 
And we'll warm up our hands by the fire
 C 
Don't look so shocked
Don't judge so harsh
 C7 
You don't know
                           F 
You are only spying
 C               Fm                 C               F2 
Everyone knows it's going to hurt
 C                                                 Am6/G     G7 
But at least we'll get hurt trying
 C 
The piano is not firewood yet
 F                                       C 
But a heart can't be helped
 Dm                         G 
And it gathers regret
 C 
Someday you'll wake up and feel a great pain
                       F                   C                       Dm               G 
And you'll miss every toy you ever owned
 F                                 C 
You'll want to go back
You'll wish you were small
 Dm                   C7             F 
Nothing can slow the crying
 C                             Fm                               F2 
You'll take the clock off of your wall
                       C                     G7       C 
And you'll wish it was lying
 F                         C 
Love what you have and you'll have more love
 C7                 F 
You're not dying
 C               Fm                                       F2 
Everyone knows you're going to love
 C                                                               G7       C 
Though there's still no cure for crying
