Intro
[Dm] [F] [C] [Gm]
Verse 1
[Dm] [F]
I let it fall, my heart,
[C] [Gm]
And as it fell you rose to claim it.
[Dm] [F]
It was dark and I was over,
[C] [Csus4]
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
Verse 2
[Dm] [F]
My hands they're strong,
[C] [Gm]
but my knees were far too weak,
[Dm] [F]
Stand in your arms
[C] [Csus4]
without falling to your feet,
Pre-chorus
[Bb] [Gm]
But there's a side to you that I never knew, I never knew.
[Dm] [Dm]
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
[Bb] [C]
And the games you'd play, you would always, always win.
Chorus
[Dm]
But I set fire to the rain,
[C]
Watch it pour as I touched your face,
[Gm]
Well, it burned while I cried,
[Dm] [C]
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
Verse 3
[Dm] [F]
When I lay with you
[C] [Gm]
I could stay there, close my eyes
[Dm] [F]
Feel you here forever,
[C] [Csus4]
You and me together, nothing is better
Pre-chorus
[Bb] [Gm]
But there's a side to you that I never knew, I never knew.

All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,

But I set fire to the rain,
[C]
Watch it pour as I touched your face,
[Gm]
Well, it burned while I cried,
[Dm] [C]
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
[Dm]
I set fire to the rain
[C]
And I threw us into the flames
[Gm]
Where I felt something die,
[Bb] [C]
Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time
Bridge
[Bb] [F/A]
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
[Am] [C]
That heart you caught, must be waiting for you,
[Bb] [F/A]
Even now when we're already over,
[Am] [C]
I can't help myself from looking for you
Chorus
[Dm]
I set fire to the rain,
[C]
Watch it pour as I touch your face,

[Dm]
I set fire to the rain,
[C]
And I threw us into the flames
[Gm]
Where I felt something die,
[Bb] [C]
Cause I knew that was the last time, the last time, oh, oh
