Fire – Sara Bareilles

[Verse 1]
 6                                                 1
Door clicks while his wheels start spinning on the pavement
    6                                         1
And I go fill the space up where he has been staying
5                     4
Won't lose much sleep, he never went that deep
    6                                         1
"Love you," oh, you sweet thing, no, I never said that
 6                                     1
Let me hold your ego while you get your bag packed
  5                   4
Don't take this the wrong way
             5
But when the spade shows up, I call it by its first name


[Chorus]
 4                                6
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
                          1
We'd've burned up in the flames
                       4
Long before they ever rose up higher
   4                                  6
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold, but I do now
          5           4                     6
So I'll know what it feels like when I feel fire, fire


[Post-Chorus]
    1 
Mmm, fire

Fire


[Verse 2]
 6                                                   1
Talk, touch, kiss, bend, this one's just like all the others
 6                                 1
And I know all too well that I won't beat the waters
 5                       4
I held my breath to swim
 5
The shallow shores aren't safe enough to dive in


[Chorus]
 4                                6
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
                           1
We'd've burned up in the flames
                        4
Long before they ever rose up higher
    4                                 6
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold, but I do now
          5             4                               6
So I'll know what it feels like when I feel fire, fire


[Bridge]
                1
That comes-and-stays fire
               3
On-blood-and-veins fire
           1           4
I've only ever wanted fire
 5                         4
In my chest, in my mouth, on my tongue, in my mind

In my soul, so my lungs can breathe in fire

4   6

[Chorus]
                         1 
We'd've burned up in the flames
                        4
Long before they ever rose up higher
                                      6
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold, but I do now
         5             4                      6
So I'll know what it feels like when I feel fire, fire
