Em          C               F#dim         B

You're standing too close to a flame that's burning

Hotter than the sun in the middle of July

       E          B/D#
Like a fever I'll take you down
[Solo 1] The chords here are unusual because it's melodic guitar and drums only. The solo is essentially chromatically descending arpeggios of tritones, starting from Gdim.

[Rap] N.C. Hotter than the sun, feel my fire, pyromaniac my desire. N.C. Thought that you could see the truth, til I just burned down the booth. N.C. Human torch can't fuck with me, Johnny Blaze? Suspect B. N.C. Strike them quick, lightning fast, melt them bitches down to ash.
Em                  C            
Gasoline, Kerosine, strike the match ignite the scene

F#dim                        B
Shit will never be the same, feel the fury of my flame

Em                           C
Beg for mercy it won't help, embrace the ending you were dealt.

F#dim                             B
Seems you fucks will never learn, now sit back and watch me burn.
