Burning chords by Sam Smith (Ver. 2)

Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro

I've been burning, yes, I've been burning

Such a burden, this flame on my chest

No insurance to pay for the damage

Yeah, I've been burning up since you left


Am  G/B  C   (x3)
Am  G    F

verse 1
                Am       G/B
I've been smoking, oh
           C
More than twenty a day
                  Am     G/B
Blame it on rebellion
       C
Don't blame it on me
             Am          G/B
Wish I was younger
            C
Back to the nineteenth of May
         Am              G
I had an open mind
                F
Swore to never change

Pre-Chorus
Am         G/B        C
Funny how time goes by
                    Am
Had respect for myself
      G/B         C
That river ran dry
                 Am
You reached the limit
   G/B        C
I wasn't enough
               Am      G             F
It's like the fire replaced all the love



          Am
I've been burning
G/B              C
Yes, I've been burning
       Am
Such a burden
     G/B           C
This flame on my chest
      Am        G/B           C
No insurance to pay for the damage
                Am      G            F
Yeah, I've been burning up since you left


verse 2
                  Am          G/B
Oh, have you ever called
       C
I will burst straight back
                Am            G/B
Give you my forgiveness
        C
And the shirt off my back
               Am             G/B
No friends to turn to
        C
Yeah, I messed up that
              Am
Wish we could smoke again
G          F
Just for a day, oh


Pre-Chorus
Am         G/B        C
Funny how time goes by
                    Am
Had respect for myself
      G/B         C
That river ran dry
                 Am
You reached the limit
   G/B        C
I wasn't enough
               Am      G             F
It's like the fire replaced all the love


          Am
I've been burning
G/B              C
Yes, I've been burning
       Am
Such a burden
     G/B           C
This flame on my chest
      Am        G/B           C
No insurance to pay for the damage
                Am      G            F
Yeah, I've been burning up since you left


Outro
                Am      G/B            C
Yeah, I've been burning up since you left
                Am      G            F
Oooh, I've been burning up since you left
