Capo on the fifth
[Intro]
Am C G Dm
[Verse]
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,
[Refrain]
F Dm
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
Am Am
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
F G
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,
[Chorus]
Am Am/B Am
But I set fire to the rain,
G G/A G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Dm
Well, it burned while I cried,
Dm F Am G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
[Verse]
Am C
When lay with you
G Dm
I could stay there, close my eyes,
Am C
feel you here forever,
G G
You and me together, nothing is better,
[Refrain]
F Dm
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
Am Am
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
F G
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,
[Chorus]
Am Am/B Am
But I set fire to the rain,
G G/A G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Dm
Well, it burned while I cried,
Dm F Am G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
Am Am/B Am
I set fire to the rain,
G G/A G
And I threw us into the flames,
Dm
Well, I felt something die,
Dm F Am G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,
[Bridge]
F C/E
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
Em G
And heard you calling, must be waiting for you,
F C/E
Even now when we're already over,
Em G
I can't help myself from looking for you,
[Chorus]
Am Am/B Am
But I set fire to the rain,
G G/A G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Dm
Well, it burned while I cried,
Dm F Am G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
Am Am/B Am
I set fire to the rain,
G G/A G
And I threw us into the flames,
Dm
Well, I felt something die,
Dm F Am G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,
[Outro]
(Chords Chorus)
Oh, no,
Let it burn, oh,
Let it burn,
Let it burn.
