Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Although this isn't set to Adele's range, I like the tone of this when sung low — works well for a male voice, actually! For those that can sing the high version, these chords sound great too. I love this song so much. ENJOY!
Intro: Em, G, D, C
Verse: EmG I let it fall, my heart, DC And as it fell, you rose to claim it, EmG It was dark and I was over, DC Until you kissed my lips and you saved me, EmG My hands, they're strong, DC but my knees were far too weak, EmG To stand in your arms DC without falling to your feet,
Refrain: C But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew, Em All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true, CD And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,
Chorus: Em But I set fire to the rain, D Watched it pour as I touched your face, C Well, it burned while I cried, AmD 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
Verse: EmG When lay with you DC I could stay there, close my eyes, EmG feel you here forever, DC You and me together, nothing is better,
Refrain: C But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew, Em All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true, CD And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,
Chorus: Em But I set fire to the rain, D Watched it pour as I touched your face, C Well, it burned while I cried, AmD 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name, Em I set fire to the rain, D And I threw us into the flames, C Well, I felt something die, AmD 'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,
Bridge: EmG Sometimes I wake up by the door, DC That heart you caught must be waiting for ya. EmG Even now when we're already over, DC I can't help myself from looking for you,
Chorus: Em But I set fire to the rain, D Watched it pour as I touched your face, C Well, it burned while I cried, AmD 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name, Em I set fire to the rain, D And I threw us into the flames, C Well, I felt something die, AmD 'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,
Outro: Em Oh.............. D Oh no.............. CAmD Let it burn.........oh...........
