Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

 I let it fall, my heart,

 And as it fell, you rose to claim it,

 It was dark and I was over,

 Until you kissed my lips and you saved me,

 My hands, they're strong,

 but my knees were far too weak,

 To stand in your arms

 without falling to your feet,

Refrain

 But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,

 All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,

 And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,

Chorus

 But I set fire to the rain,

 Watched it pour as I touched your face,

 Well, it burned while I cried,

 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,

Verse

 When lay with you

 I could stay there, close my eyes,

 feel you here forever,

 You and me together, nothing is better,

Refrain

 But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,

 All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,

 And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,

Chorus

 But I set fire to the rain,

 Watched it pour as I touched your face,

 Well, it burned while I cried,

 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,

 I set fire to the rain,

 And I threw us into the flames,

 Well, I felt something die,

 'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,

Bridge

 Sometimes I wake up by the door,

 And heard you calling, must be waiting for you,

 Even now when we're already over,

 I can't help myself from looking for you,

Chorus

 But I set fire to the rain,

 Watched it pour as I touched your face,

 Well, it burned while I cried,

 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,

 I set fire to the rain,

 And I threw us into the flames,

 Well, I felt something die,

 '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.
