Intro

Riff 1

 Riff 1

Whenever I’m with you

 Something inside

 starts burning

 And my hearts filled with fire

Stop this - it’s got a hold on me

 I said this ain’t the way it’s supposed to be

G (Bass plays Riff 1)

It’s like a heatwave burning in my heart

I can’t keep from crying

Tearing me apart

 Riff 1

Whenever she calls my name

 Sounds so soft sweet and plain

 Right there, right then

 I feel this burning pain

 This high blood pressure’s got a hold on me

 I said this ain’t the way love’s supposed to be

G (Bass plays Riff 1)

It’s like a heatwave burning in my heart

I can’t keep from crying

Tearing me apart
