              Em7 
Wildfire on a Harley 
   D          Cadd9 
Tatoos in the wind 
              Em7 
Burns like a cigarette 
    D             Cadd9 
And I just wanna breathe it in 
  Em7          D 
Alone again tonight  
                  Cadd9 
With a dozen I'm Sorrys by my side 
Em7          D 
Red pink and white 
       Cadd9 
Such a shame to watch them die 



Em7          D               
One by one I let them fall 
     Cadd9 
Like tear drops in slow motion 
    Em7            D 
He loves me or he loves me not 
     Cadd9 
I'm running out of roses 
     Em7         D 
He's beautiful, dangerous 
  Cadd9 
A storm that never settles 
     Em7        D        Cadd9 *ring out* 
And I'm growing tired of picking petals 



                 Em7 
I swear he's the devil 
D          Cadd9 
With an angel face 
                Em7 
Got a kiss like poison 
  D    Cadd9 
But I love the taste 
    Em7       D 
My hopes get too high 
      Cadd9 
Then crash without a sound 
        Em7            D 
When the clock strikes midnight 
         Cadd9 
And he's nowhere to be found 
I watch them hit the ground 



Em7          D               
One by one I let them fall 
     Cadd9 
Like tear drops in slow motion 
    Em7            D 
He loves me or he loves me not 
     Cadd9 
I'm running out of roses 
     Em7         D 
He's beautiful, dangerous 
  Cadd9 
A storm that never settles 
     Em7        D        Cadd9 *ring out* 
And I'm growing tired of picking petals 



Em7            D 
Knocking at my door 
       Cadd9 
As the last one hits the floor 
Em7            D 
Knocking at my door 
       Cadd9 
As the last one hits the floor 


Em7          D               
One by one I let them fall 
     Cadd9 
Like tear drops in slow motion 
    Em7            D 
He loves me or he loves me not 
     Cadd9 
I'm running out of roses 
     Em7         D 
He's beautiful, dangerous 
  Cadd9 
A storm that never settles 
     Em7        D        Cadd9 *ring out* 
And I'm growing tired of picking petals
