Asus2 E I'd heard rumors and I'd heard talk Asus2 E About the trail you'd left of broken hearts Asus2 E About the sea of tears too wide to cross Asus2 E But a little bad press has never scared me off Asus2 So I burned a path to figure out E How to get me some of what you got Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E If the talk is true yours is the same Asus2 And we should be together E And let our passions fan love's flame Asus2 E When I looked for you I almost passed you by Asus2 You were so cool and calm E I thought my friends had lied Asus2 E But I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside Asus2 It was there and then that I knew E I had to get some of what you got Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E If the talk is true yours is the same Asus2 And we should be together E And let our passions fan love's flame Asus2 E I thought I'd won your heart when I held you hand //<break>
in mine // <break>
Asus2 E I thought it was true love the way we complemented //<break>
... each other
Asus2 But my right is your wrong E And when you're right then I'm left //<break>
...with nothing
Asus2 E Your light and your heat have all been spent...
Leaving only smoke and ashes
Asus E Only smoke and ashes baby Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins Asus2 I say there's fire down below E You say it's only smoke and ashes baby Am7 I'm crying all the time Em7 Salty stinging tears Am7 Em7 And mourning for the past carbon-dated years Am7 Em7 But knowing now for certain that you were always right Am7 Em7 Because if a breeze could blow you out of my life E It's only smoke and ashes baby Asus2 E Only smoke and ashes baby Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E Asus2 E And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins <your heart's as blue..> Asus2 I say there's fire down below E Asus2 E You say it's only smoke and ashes baby Am7 I was blinded by devotion Em7 My unwavering love for you Am7 Em7 So blinded that I thought all your lies were true Am7 Em7 But now I know for certain since you've gone away Am7 Em7 It was just a smoldering fire I mistook for a blaze E E Only smoke and ashes baby ....<only smoke and ashes....> Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E Asus2 E And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins <your heart's as blue> Asus2 I say there's fire down below E Asus2 You say it's only smoke and ashes baby E Asus2 Only smoke and ashes baby, baby <repeat out...>
