C#m                       E
My mother said I'm too romantic
G#sus4                            A
She said, "You're dancing in the movies"
C#m                    E
I almost started to believe her
G#sus4                 A
Then I saw you and I knew
C#m                        E
Maybe it's 'cause I got a little bit older
B                               A
Maybe it's all that I've been through
C#m                             E
I'd like to think it's how you lean on my shoulder
B                          A
And how I see myself with you

  F#m      G#m A
I don't say a word
            B   C#m                 B                 F#m
But still, you take my breath and steal the things I know
      G#m  A     B   C#m                 B
There you go, saving me from out of the cold

Chorus:
         C#m                   E
Fire on fire, would normally kill us
                 B                     A
but this much desire, together, we're winners
                    C#m                                E
They say that we're out of control and some say we're sinners
                    B                   A
But don't let them ruin our beautiful rhythms
                F#m                        A
'Cause when you unfold me and tell me you love me
               C#m  B
And look in my eyes
        F#m                    A
You are perfection, my only direction
             C#m
It's fire on fire, mmm
It's fire on fire

When we fight, we fight like lions
But then we love and feel the truth
We lose our minds in a city of roses
We won't abide by any rules

I don't say a word
But still, you take my breath and steal the things I know
There you go, saving me from out of the cold

Chorus:
Fire on fire would normally kill us
But this much desire, together, we're winners
They say that we're out of control and some say we're sinners
But don't let them ruin our beautiful rhythms
'Cause when you unfold me and tell me you love me
And look in my eye
You are perfection, my only direction
It's fire on fire, oh
It's fire on fire

        C#m                   A
Fire on fire, would normally kill us
                 E                    G#m
But this much desire, together, we're winners
                    C#m                                A
They say that we're out of control and some say we're sinners
                    E                  G#m
But don't let them ruin our beautiful rhythms

Chorus:
Fire on fire would normally kill us
But this much desire, together, we're winners
They say that we're out of control and some say we're sinners
But don't let them ruin our beautiful rhythms
'Cause when you unfold me and tell me you love me
And look in my eye
You are perfection, my only direction
It's fire on fire

You are perfection, my only direction
It's fire on fire
