      D 
I can see the place from here this time of year 
             G                                               D 
When it gets cold and leaves shrivel up and parachute to the ground 
      D 
I can see you made it back, I can see you're still around 
                    G                                    D 
I was hoping they'd keep you locked away in the lost and found 
                    Em 
I fin'lly found the key to my heart 
                  G 
All I ever really needed was a little spark 
                         D  
You come rolling in like gasoline 
                                 Em 
That's why there's never nothing left of me 
          D  
Cause you burn me 

 
G 
You burn me up just like a midnight cigarette 
G 
You burn me up cause you can melt me with your kiss 
           D  
Why do you hurt me, oh baby you hurt me 
G 
You can burn me with a simple single touch 
G 
I get confused and think I've never loved this much 
            D                                Em 
And without warning you come rolling in like gasoline 
                                 G 
That's why there's never nothing left of me 
          D  
Cause you burn me 

Verse 
  D                                  G           D 
I thought that you moved on, tell me why are you back 
       G                                    D 
Did he figure out all your crazy, deceitful ways 
         D 
But this time it's not gonna work, this time I'm standing clear 
                     G                                   D 
Of the time bomb you are and the time bomb you've always been 
                    Em 
I fin'lly found the key to my heart 
                  G 
All I ever really needed was a little spark 
                         D  
You come rolling in like gasoline 
                                 Em 
That's why there's never nothing left of me 
          D 
Cause you burn me 

 
G 
You burn me up just like a midnight cigarette 
G 
You burn me up cause you can melt me with your kiss 
           D  
Why do you hurt me, oh baby you hurt me 
G 
You can burn me with a simple single touch 
G 
I get confused and think I've never loved this much 
            D                                Em 
And without warning you come rolling in like gasoline 
                                 G 
That's why there's never nothing left of me 
          D  
Cause you burn me (2x)
