[A]
As [C#m] she put on her face, [A] she has promised once before not to [C#m] live this way.
If she don't calm [D] down, she will burn [A] herself out like a forest [Em] fire.
[D]
Well, doesn't that make you [A] smile?
[D#]
[A] If you don't slow down, I swear that [C#m] I'll come around 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 [A] be over.
Don't that [Bm] make you smile [D] like a forest [A] fire?
I [Em] believe [A] in love.
I believe [C#m] in anything.
It's gonna get [A] me what I want.
It'll get me off [C#m] my knees.
And then when [A] time is housed [D] down, [A]
it will feel so good.
There's a [Bm] forest fire [D] every time we get [A] together.
[Em]
[A]
Feel the love.
[C#m]
[A]
[C#m] Hey,
[D] I'm gonna pick you up and put you down.
We'll get up there swinging [A] round like we said we would.
Because [Bm] we're a forest fire.
[F#m] Believe we'd be whatever's [A] placed down.
If we get caught in this wind, then we'll get [C#m] burned in motion.
If we get caught in [A] this feeling, we're gonna be [C#m] undone.
Lord, it's just a [F#m] simple metaphor [A] and it's more of burning love.
Don't that [Bm] make you smile like [D]
a [A] forest fire?
