E
I heard you were back in town
I heard you were coming 'round
Trying to get off the ground
From every road you went down

I walked down to your street
Could still feel the old heat
If you're burning on empty
I'll be holding a golden ring

E
'Cause hey, hey, they don't know you like I do
I wait for the whole world to show you
C#m                        B
Baby, we're not, not that gone

Chorus:
A             E
Do you ever think about me?
A            B
Do you ever call my name?
A                E
Ask me now I'll give you the reasons
C#m B             A
My love will not fade

                      E
Through the fire and rain
             G#m A
The fire and rain

I'll meet you halfway
If you're comin' the long way
Don't care what the people say
Of the prodigal runaway

'Cause hey, hey, they don't know you like I do
I wait for the whole world to show you
Baby, we're not, not that gone

Chorus

Through the fire and rain
The fire and rain

A           B       C#m    E
Well, say goodbye, I'm gone
Oh, it hurts to hold on
If you settle your score, no, no
Pick you up off the floor

Chorus:
Do you ever think about me?
Do you ever call my name?
Ask me now, I'll give you the reasons
My love
Do you ever think about me?
Do you ever call my name?
Ask me now, I'll give you the reasons
My love will not fade
[Post-Chorus]
Through the fire and rain
The fire and rain
Fire and rain
The fire and rain
