Set Fire To The Rain

Set Fire To The Rain - Adele

c c c f g f
I let it fall, my heart,
f f f e e e e e f
And as it fell, you rose to claim it.
c c c f
It was dark
c c c g f d c d
And I was over,
f f f e e e
Until you kissed my lips
c c c d
And you saved me.
c f
My hands
g f d
They were strong,
f e e c c d d c a d
But my knees were far too weak,
c f
To stand
g g f d
In your arms without
f f e e e f f d
Falling to your feet,
d d d d e d d e f e d f e d
But there’s a side, to you, that I never knew, never knew.
d d d e d d e f e d f e d
All the things you’d say, they were never true, never true,
d d d e d d e f e d f e e
And the games you’d play, you would always win, always win.

Refrão:
f f g a a g f a g a
But I set fire to the rain,
g c f g f f c c g a
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
a d f d d f d d f d f d d f d
Well, it burned while I cried, ’cause I heard it screaming out your name,
f d c d f g
Your name!

c f g f
When I lay with you
f f e e c d d
I could stay there, Close my eyes,
c c f e d d g g a
Feel you here forever,
g f e e e e e e e e f g
You and me together, nothing is better
d d d d e d d e f e d f e d
But there’s a side, to you, that I never knew, never knew.
d d d e d d e f e d f e d
All the things you’d say, they were never true, never true,
d d d e d d e f e d f e e
And the games you’d play, you would always win, always win.

Refrão:

But I set fire to the rain,

Watched it pour as I touched your face,
a d f d d f d d f d f d d f d
Well, it burned while I cried, ’cause I heard it screaming out your name,
f d c d f g
Your name
a a a g f a g a
I set fire to the rain,
g g c g f e c c a
And I threw us into the flames,
a d f d d f
Well, I felt something died,
d d f d f d d f d
’Cause I knew that that was the last time,
f d f g
The last time

a g g f f f g g a
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
e e e e
The heart you caught,
e e e e f g
Must be waiting for you,
a g g f f f g g a
Even now when we’re already over,
e e e e e e e e e f g
I can’t help myself from looking for you

a a a g f a g a
I set fire to the rain,

Watched it pour as I touch your face,

Well, it burned while I cried,

I set fire to the rain,

And I threw us into the flames,

Well, I felt something died,

’Cause I knew that that was the last time,

The last time
