James Taylor 1970 (Sweet Baby James) * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_and_Rain_(song) Capo III [Intro] A G D A A E G A [Verse 1]
A              Em                  D             A   Asus2 A
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone 

            E                      G
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you 

A                  Em            D               A   Asus2 A
 I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song 

               E             G          G D
I just can't remember who to send it to
[Chorus]
D         Bm                 A   Asus2 A
I've seen fire and I've seen rain 

          D                 Bm                  A  Asus2 A
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 

          D                   Bm               A     Asus2 A
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 

      G                       Em       A   A7
But I always thought that I'd see you again
[Verse 2]
          A                  Em
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus 

              D              A    Asus2 A
You've got to help me make a stand 

                   E               G
You've just got to see me through another day 

A          Em            D          A   Asus2 A
 My body's aching and my time is at hand 

            E           G         G D
And I won't make it any other way
[Chorus]
D             Bm                 A  Asus2 A
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain 

          D                 Bm                  A  Asus2 A
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 

          D                   Bm               A     Asus2 A
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 

      G                       Em       A   A7
But I always thought that I'd see you again
[Verse 3]
     A                     Em            D                       A  Asus2 A
Been walking my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun 

                    E                     G
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around 

              A                    Em                D                    A   Asus2 A
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come 

                 E                  G                    G D 
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
[Chorus]
D             Bm                 A   Asus2 A
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain 

          D                 Bm                  A   Asus2 A
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 

          D                   Bm               A     Asus2 A
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 

      G                       Em                            A   A7
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again
[Outro]
            G                Em    A
Thought I'd see you one more time again 

               G                    Em             A
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now 

            G        G           Em               A
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now . . .
