Intro
D#m F# C# G#m
[Verse 1]
D#m F#
I let it fall, my heart,
C# G#m
And as it fell you rose to claim it.
D#m F#
It was dark and I was over,
C# C#sus4
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
[Verse 2]
D#m F#
My hands they're strong,
C# G#m
but my knees were far too weak,
D#m F#
Stand in your arms
C# C#sus4
without falling to your feet,
[Pre-chorus]
Cb G#m
But there's a side to you that I never knew, I never knew.
D#m D#m
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
Cb C#
And the games you'd play, you would always, always win.
[Chorus]
D#m
But I set fire to the rain,
C#
Watch it pour as I touched your face,
G#m
Well, it burned while I cried,
D#m C#
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
[Verse 3]
D#m F#
When I'm with you
C# G#m
I could stay there,
D#m F#
Close my eyes, feel you're here forever,
C# C#sus4
You and me together, nothing is better
[Pre-chorus]
Cb G#m
But there's a side to you that I never knew, I never knew.
D#m D#m
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
Cb C#
And the games you'd play, you would always, always win.
[Chorus]
D#m
But I set fire to the rain,
C#
Watch it pour as I touched your face,
G#m
Well, it burned while I cried,
D#m C#
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
D#m
I set fire to the rain
C#
And I threw us into the flames
G#m
Where I felt something die,
Cb C#
Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time
[Bridge]
Cb F#/A#
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
A#m C#
That heart you caught, must be waiting for you,
Cb F#/A#
Even now when we're already over,
A#m C#
I can't help myself from looking for you
[Chorus]
D#m
I set fire to the rain,
C#
Watch it pour as I touch your face,
G#m
Well, it burned when I cried,
D#m C#
Cause I heard it screaming your name, your name
D#m
I set fire to the rain,
C#
And I threw us into the flames
G#m
Where I felt something die,
Cb C#
Cause I knew that was the last time, the last time, oh, oh
[Outro]
D#m C# G#m D#m C#
Let it burn!
D#m C# G#m Cb C#
Let it burn!
