Lloyd Cole and the Commotions - Forest Fire chords
Start Jamming...
She crossed [A] herself, as she [C#m] put on her fins.
[A] She has promised once before, not [C#m] to live this way.
If she don't [D] calm down, [A] she [D] will burn [A] herself out,
like a forest [D] fire.
[A] [D] Well, doesn't that make you [C#m] smile?
[G] [A] If you don't slow down, I swear that I'll [C#m] come round
and mess up your [A] place.
Let's go for a [C#m] spin.
Say, we [D] shouldn't even know each other,
and that will be [A] undone.
Don't that make [B] you smile?
[D] Like a forest [A] fire.
I believe in love.
I'll believe [C#] in [C#m] anything.
It's gonna get me what [A] I want.
Get me [C#m] off my knees.
And it will burn [A] your [D] house down.
Don't [A] it feel so good?
It's a forest [D] fire.
Every time we get [A] together.
[E]
[A] Do do do do [E] do do do do.
[A] Do do do do do do do [C#m] do do do do do do do do do do.
Hey, [D] pick you up, put you down.
Rip you up and spit you [A] around,
just like we said we would.
Cause [D] we're a forest fire.
[F#m] Believe we'll [D] be, tell us [A] play this out
If we get caught in this wind
Then we could [C#m] burn the ocean
If we get caught in [A] this rain
We're gonna be [C#m] undone
It's just a simple [D] metaphor
It's for a burning [A] love.
Don't it [Bm] make you smile, [D]
like a forest [A] fire.
