Version 1BLOOD AND FIRE (Amy Ray) [Key of A, but actually in B, so capo up 2 frets] [The chords are just guides; mix in a lot of (9) chords with these. For instance: in the intro, play the A for 5/8 of the measure and A(9) for the last 3/8; same with the G. The D is actually D-D(9)-D-D(9). Dsus is used at the end of the verses, and Asus at the end of choruses.] A G D D A G D D [intro] A G D D Well I have spent nights with matches and knives A G D D Leaning over ledges only two flights up A G D D Cutting my heart, burning my soul, with nothing left to hold A G D D Nothing left, but blood and fire A G D D You have spent nights thinking of me, missing my arms but you needed to leave A G D D Leaving my cuts, leaving my burns, hoping I'd learn (Chorus) G D A A But blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold G D A A And my nights of desire, they're calling me here, back to your fold G D A A And I'm calling you, calling you, from ten thousand miles away G D A A Won't you wet my fire with your love, babe A G D D I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give A G D D And'll give back as much as I need, y'know and they still have the will to live A G D D 'Cause I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love A G D D But I feel forsaken, you know like the things I, I gave away G D A A And blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold G D A A And my nights of desire, they're calling me here, back to your fold G D A A And I'm calling you, calling you, from ten thousand miles away G D A A Won't you wet my fire with your love, won'y you babe hold me now A G D D I am intense, I'm in need, I'm in pain, I'm in love A G D D I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love A G D D I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love G D A A And blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold G D A A And my nights of desire, they're calling me here, back to your fold G D A A And I'm calling you, calling you, from ten thousand miles away G D A A Won't you wet my fire with your love, babe G D A A Won't you wet my fire with your love, baby, hold me G D A E|------^-3------------^-2-------3-2-0--------------0------| B|------/-3------------\-3-----3-------3----------2--------| G|------\-0------------/-2-----2----------------2----------| D|------/-0------------\-0-----0--------------2------------| A|------\-2------------/-0-----0----------0-0--------------| E|------/-3------------------------------------------------| Wet my fire with your love
