[INTRO]
A E7 A

A
I believe I’ve attempted every move that I know
E7
I was sure that by now you’d have let yourself go
A
I’ve been loving my heart out, and without any shame
E7
Gotten down on my knees just to kindle this flam

A
But tonight I am down to the wire
E7
I’ve been striking these matches in vain

Got a whole lt of smoke but no fire
A
‘Cause you got a heart full of rain

A
Now somewhere in your history there’s a reason or two
E7
Why you won’t let a body get close to you
A
Why the truth that I whisper always sounds like a lie
E7
Why you’re drowning inside from the tears you don’t cry

A
But your blue eyes have never been dryer
E7
And you smile like you’re felling no pain

Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
A
‘Cause you got a heart full of rain
D A
I had hoped I could open the heart that you hide
E7
‘Cause it sure needs a little sunshine inside

A
But tonight I am down to the wire
E7
I’ve been striking these matches in vain
Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
A
‘Cause you got a heart full of rain
E7 D A
‘Cause you got a heart full of rain
