Heavens On Fire chords by The Radio Dept

Guitar chords with lyrics

This is my interpretation of the song, I know it's not 100% correct but it does sound like the original song. I think the original song is played in a different tuning.

Chords in accordance to Capo on the 1st fret. Notice that Em7 is different from Em7*.

e|---3-----5-----3-----2-----0-----2---|
B|---3-----5-----3-----2-----3-----2---|

D|---5-----7-----0-----0-----2-----0---|
A|---5-----7-----2-----0-----2-----0---|
E|---3-----5-----0-----0-----0-----0---|


The riff below is played mostly throughout the song. Just keep playing it over the Verse/Chorus.

Intro(after the talking):  Play *Riff 1* x2

Verse/Chorus: Play *Riff 1* x5

"When I look at you, heaven's on fire
I wish I didn't know you better, but it's pointless
One look at you, and heaven's on fire

Verse/Chorus: Play *Riff 1* x4

When I look at you, I reach for a piano wire
Fighting to keep it together, but it's pointless
One look at you and heaven's on fire,
Heaven's on fire

Bridge

A
It seems like everyone is on your side
G
We're outnumbered by those who take no pride
A
In constantly moving against the tide
G
Charlatans just out of reach and out of time

*Riff 1* x2

Verse/Chorus: Play *Riff 1* x4

I'm a little like you, ugly on the inside
But while I dive into the gritty, you just stand by
When I look at you Heaven's on fire
Heaven's on fire

A
It seems like everyone is on your side
G
We're outnumbered by those who take no pride
A
In constantly moving against the tide
G
Charlatans just out of reach and out of time

A

G
Charlatans just out of reach and out of time

*Riff 1* x6
