Verse, Set fire to the rain
 
          Gm      A# 
I let it fall, my heart, 
           F                    D#maj7 
And as it fell, you rose to claim it, 
        Gm            A# 
It was dark and I was over, 
           F                     D#maj7 
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me, 
    Gm             A# 
My hands, they're strong, 
          F                D#maj7 
but my knees were far too weak, 
     Gm           A# 
To stand in your arms 
          F              D#maj7 
without falling to your feet,

And once there was an animal 
A#                          D#maj7 
It had a son that mowed the lawn 
    Gm             A# 
The son was an ok guy 
A#                   D#maj7 
Thay had a pet dragonfly

Refrain Set fire to the rain
 
               D#                D#maj7 
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew, 
          Gm                          Gm 
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true, 
         D#                           F 
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,

But I set fire to the rain,

Watched it pour as I touched your face,

Well, it burned while I cried, 
          D#maj7       D#               Gm    F 
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name, 
 
Bridge Set fire to the rain 
 
     D#               A# 
Sometimes I wake up by the door, 
               Dm                        F 
And heard you calling, must be waiting for you, 
      D#                    A# 
Even now when we're already over, 
         Dm                        F 
I can't help myself from looking for you,

    Gm                       A# 
And for a while things were cold 
                               D#maj7 
They were scared down in their holes

The forest that once was green 
                                     D#maj7 
Was colored black by those k*lling machines 
    Gm                   A# 
But she and her furry friends 
                                D#maj7 
Took down the queen bee and her men 
    Gm                    A# 
And that's how the story goes 
                                             D#maj7 
The story of the beast with those four dirty paws
