"Set Fire To The Rain"
Am C
I let it fall, my heart,
G Dm
And as it fell you rose to claim it
Am C
It was dark and I was over
G Dm
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
Am C
My hands, they're strong
G Dm
But my knees were far too weak,
Am C
To stand in your arms
G G
Without falling to your feet
F
But there's a side to you
Dm
That I never knew, never knew.
Am
All the things you'd say
Am
They were never true, never true,
F
And the games you play
G G --pause--
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
Am
But I set fire to the rain,
G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Dm
Well, it burned while I cried
Am G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
Am C
When I lay with you
G
I could stay there
Dm
Close my eyes
Am C
Feel you here forever
G
You and me together
G
Nothing is better

Well, it burned while I cried
Am G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
Am
I set fire to the rain
G
And I threw us into the flames
Dm
Where it felt something die
Am G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Am C
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
G Dm
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Am C
Even now when we're already over
G G
I can't help myself from looking for you.
[Chorus:]
Am
I set fire to the rain,
G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Dm
Well, it burned while I cried
Am G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
Am
I set fire to the rain,
G
And I threw us into the flames
Dm
Where it felt something die
Am G Am
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, ohhhh!
G
Oh noooo
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
