[Verse] AmC I let it fall, my heart, GDm And as it fell, you rose to claim it, AmC It was dark and I was over, GDm Until you kissed my lips and you saved me, AmC My hands, they're strong, GDm but my knees were far too weak, AmC To stand in your arms GG without falling to your feet,
[Refrain] FDm But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew, AmAm All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true, FG And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,
[Chorus] AmAm/BAm But I set fire to the rain, GG/AG Watched it pour as I touched your face, Dm Well, it burned while I cried, DmFAmG 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
[Verse] AmC When lay with you GDm I could stay there, close my eyes, AmC feel you here forever, GG You and me together, nothing is better,
[Refrain] FDm But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew, AmAm All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true, FG And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,
[Chorus] AmAm/BAm But I set fire to the rain, GG/AG Watched it pour as I touched your face, Dm Well, it burned while I cried, DmFAmG 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name, AmAm/BAm I set fire to the rain, GG/AG And I threw us into the flames, Dm Well, I felt something die, DmFAmG 'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,
[Bridge] FC/E Sometimes I wake up by the door, EmG And heard you calling, must be waiting for you, FC/E Even now when we're already over, EmG I can't help myself from looking for you,
[Chorus] AmAm/BAm But I set fire to the rain, GG/AG Watched it pour as I touched your face, Dm Well, it burned while I cried, DmFAmG 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name, AmAm/BAm I set fire to the rain, GG/AG And I threw us into the flames, Dm Well, I felt something die, DmFAmG '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.
