Transcribed by Soch Hean (This is the single studio recording. If you have the vinyl recording of this song, put capo on the first fret) Intro: Bm G D E Verse:
Bm                G
Oh, I'm counting down

            D
Hoping the time has come

           E
To let it out

Bm                            G
Never a time I had tried to breathe

         D                     E
I feel suffocated, I'm on my knees

G                              F#
I felt the cold and dark run through my veins

Bm               A                 E
Shivered when I heard her call my name
Chorus:
G                Bm
She burns like summer sun

A                 E
I know she's the only one I want

G     Bm               A
Even when she's gone, wait

            G
I felt the heat on my skin

         Bm
When my head started to spin

A            F#
Too much is never enough

      G          D             A
She burns like summer sun, for me
Verse:
Bm               G
Oh, I'm holding out

              D
Now that the time has come

           E
For giving in

Bm                          G
*This just was to keep me warm

      D
Take away my pain

          E
Help me forget it all

G                              F#
I felt the cold and dark run through my veins

Bm               A                 E
Shivered when I heard her call my name
Chorus:
G                Bm
She burns like summer sun

A                 E
I know she's the only one I want

G     Bm               A
Even when she's gone, wait

            G
I felt the heat on my skin

         Bm
When my head started to spin

A            F#
Too much is never enough

      G          D                A
She burns like summer sun, for me

G  A          D   A
No, yeah she burns

G                   A
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bridge:
Em                       D
The time has come I'm counting down

G                     A
Hear my breath and I let it out

Em                    D                    A
Now there's nothing left she can take from me
Chorus:
G                Bm
She burns like summer sun

A                 E
I know she's the only one I want

I felt the heat on my skin

When my head started to spin

Too much is never enough

Burns like summer sun, sing it out now

Burns like summer sun, for me
