 Dm7                      A#
Sittin' there wrapped up tight
                       C
In your flannel button-up
                 Am
With your arms around me
 Dm7                         A#
Watchin' those flames dance high
                    C
Where nobody could find us
                  Am
Oh, but you sure found me
Dm7            A#
Yeah, we were lightin' that fire
 C                         F    C/E
Heatin' up the sky like a July rocket
Dm7     A#

 C
We'd stay up all night and watch it

      F                         Am7
It's keeping me warm, but it's killing me
 Dm7                  A#
Every time I think about you now
 F                        Am
Even though our love died out
                  Dm7  A#    C    Am7
It's always gonna burn, burn, burn

Riding 'round rag top down
Little beach town
Weekend on the water
Under that gold moonshine
Your lips on mine
Couldn't get no hotter
Yeah, we were soakin' it up
Buzzin' on love and margaritas
When I see the sand and the sun
The salt in the air, I swear, I feel the

Chorus:
Burn
Like whiskey in my glass
Even though it's sittin' on ice
It's always gonna burn
Little too hot real fast
Like when you were mine, yeah
That's the thing about your memory
It's keeping me warm, but it's killing me
Every time I think about you now
Even though our love died out
It's always gonna burn, burn, burn, yeah

     Am7          Dm  A#                 C
It's always gonna burn, just like this whiskey
     Am7          Dm7 A#            C
It's always gonna burn and make me wonder
if you miss me

Chorus:
That's the thing about your memory
It's keeping me warm, but it's killing me
Baby, when I think about you now
Even though our love died out
It's always gonna burn, burn, burn

It's always gonna burn, burn, burn
