Settin The World On Fire chords by Jake Owen

Chords with lyrics

This is a great song by Jake Owen. Just listen for timing and rhythm. He plays it in a
lower tuning, but standard works too.


       G+G
Well that big red sun was sinkin' slow

That rising had a haunting glow
                       Cadd9Cadd9
I could see those heat waves rising off the ground

       G+G
We were sittin'on go at that old stop sign

Headlights shinin' on the county line
                     Cadd9Cadd9
It was do or die, had to get out of that town

       A minorAm
Well honey, you said run
  C majorC     D MajorD
We were so young

 G+G
Tryin' to the world on fire
 Cadd9Cadd9
Turn the key and spark the wire
 E minorEm          D MajorD     Cadd9Cadd9
Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire
   G+G
The future was an open road
Cadd9Cadd9
Gone in a cloud of smoke
E minorEm          D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires
Cadd9Cadd9           D MajorD       G+G
Just you and me girl, settin' the world on fire

Cadd9Cadd9                   G+G        Cadd9Cadd9
     Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire

 G+G
We were blazin' down the road like Kerouac

No time to stop and cover our tracks
                     Cadd9Cadd9
We were too damn hot for any one town to hold

 G+G
Yeah, we burned through a few good years

Then you started looking back in that rear view mirror
                   Cadd9Cadd9
Right outside of Reno the trail got cold
          A minorAm      C majorC     D MajorD
You said you'd had enough of this ramblin' love

G+G
Tryin' to set the world on fire
Cadd9Cadd9
Turn the key and spark the wire
E minorEm        D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire
G+G
The future was an open road
Cadd9Cadd9
Gone in a cloud of smoke
E minorEm          D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9
Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires
Cadd9Cadd9                  D MajorD
FF   C majorC   D MajorD   D MajorD
For a while there girl, we were settin' the world on fire

 G+G
Pullin' on a lucky strike 'bout to head west

Ridin' off into God's sunset
                  Cadd9Cadd9
It's times like this a always think of you
        A minorAm    C majorC    D MajorD
But honey you know me I'll always be..

G+G
Tryin' to the world on fire
Cadd9Cadd9
Turn the key and spark the wire
E minorEm              D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire
G+G
The future was an open road
Cadd9Cadd9
Gone in a cloud of smoke
E minorEm          D MajorD        Cadd9Cadd9
Leavin' a trail of flames behind these tires
Cadd9Cadd9           D MajorD             G+G
See I'm out here girl settin' the world on fire

Cadd9Cadd9                  G+G
     I'm settin' the world on fire
Cadd9Cadd9                      G+G
