              A           C#m7
She crossed herself as she put on her veil
        A                        C#m7
She has promised once before not to live this way

If she don't calm down she will burn herself out

If you don't slow down       I swear that I'll come round
              A                      C#m7
And mess up your place       let's go for a spin
                          D
You say we shouldn't even know each other
                        Amaj9
And that we'll be undone

I believe in love...I'll believe in anything
                      A                        C#m7
That's going to get me what I want and get me off my knees
                               D
And then we'll burn your house down
                  Amaj9
Don't it feel so good?
                 Bm7             Dmaj7          Amaj9
There's a forest fire every time we get together


Bridge:

          A             C#m7
Hey pick you up - put you down
       A         C#m7
Rip you up then spin you round
                          D
Just like we said we would
                Amaj9
Because we're a forest fire

Believe you me - we'll tear this place down


Verse 4:

                 A                            C#m7
If we get caught in this wind then we could burn the ocean
                    A                        C#m7
If we get caught in this wind we're gonna be undone
                         D                         Bm7
It's just a simple matter. This fire burning round
                  Dmaj7                    Amaj9
Don't it make you smile like a forest fire?
