[F#m] are [D] my [A] fire, [F#m] the one [D] [A] desire, [F#m] believe [D] when I [A] say [F#m] I want [E] it [A] that [F#m] way.
But we are two [A] worlds [F#m] apart, [D] can't [A] reach to [F#m] your heart [D] when you [A] say [F#m] that I want [E] it [A] that way.

[D] You are [C#m] my [F#m] fire, [D] the one [C#m] desire, [F#m]
[D] you are [E] the [A]
[F#m] [Bm] one I [E] hate.
[F#] [G#m]

[E] I never [F#] want to hear [B] you say [G#m] I [F#] [B]
[E] [F#] want [G#m]
[E] [F#] [G#m]
[E] [F#] [B] it [G#m] [F#] that way.
[B]
[E] Tell me why, ain't nothing [F#] but a fall [G#m]
[E] day, tell me why, ain't nothing [F#] but a [G#m] mistake, [E] tell me why, I never [F#] want to hear [B] you say [G#m] I want [F#] it [B] that way.
