[Intro]
A#m C# G# F#
[Verse]
A#m C#
I let it fall, my heart,
G# F#
And as it fell, you rose to claim it,
A#m C#
It was dark and I was over,
G# F#
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me,
A#m C#
My hands, they're strong,
G# F#
but my knees were far too weak,
A#m C#
To stand in your arms
G# F#
without falling to your feet.
[Pre-chorus]
F# A#m
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
F# A#m
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]
A#m
But I set fire to the rain,
G#
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
F#
Well, it burned while I cried,
D#m G#
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name.
[Verse]
A#m C#
When lay with you
G# F#
I could stay there, close my eyes,
A#m C#
feel you here forever,
G# F#
You and me together, nothing is better.
[Pre-chorus]
F# A#m
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
F# A#m
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]
A#m
But I set fire to the rain,
G#
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
F#
Well, it burned while I cried,
D#m G#
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
A#m
I set fire to the rain,
G#
And I threw us into the flames,
F#
Well, I felt something die,
D#m G#
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time.
[Bridge]
A#m C#
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
G# F#
And heard you calling, must be waiting for you,
A#m C#
Even now when we're already over,
G# F#
I can't help myself from looking for you.
[Interlude]
A#m G# F# D#m G#
[Chorus]
A#m
But I set fire to the rain,
G#
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
F#
Well, it burned while I cried,
D#m G#
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
A#m
I set fire to the rain,
G#
And I threw us into the flames,
F#
Well, I felt something die,
D#m G#
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time.
[Outro]
A#m G#
Let it burn,
F# D#m G# A#m~
Let it burn.
