SET FIRE TO THE RAIN
This is a fantastic cover of Adele's song. 
Standard tuning, no capo.
It is my first tab, all feedback is welcome!
Intro: Gm#, B, F#, E  
Verse:
I let it fGm#all, my hBeart,
And as it fF#ell, you rose to Eclaim it,
It was Gm#dark and I was ovBer,
Until you kiF#ssed my lips and you saEved me,
My hGm#ands, they're stBrong, 
but my kneF#es were far too wEeak,
To sGm#tand in your aBrms 
without faF#lling to your feeEt,
Bridge:
But there's a sEide to you that I Gm#never knew, never knew,
All the tEhings you'd say, they were nGm#ever true, never true,
And the Egames you'd play, you would aBlways win, aF#lways win,
Chorus:
But I set fGm#ire to the rain,
Watched it pF#our as I touched your face,
Well, it buErned while I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your nBame, youGm#r name,
Verse:
When lGm#ay with yBou
I could stF#ay there, close my Eeyes, 
feel you Gm#here foreveBr
You and me tF#ogether, nothing is bEetter,
Bridge:
But there's a sEide to you that I Gm#never knew, never knew,
All the tEhings you'd say, they were nGm#ever true, never true,
And the Egames you'd play, you would aBlways win, aF#lways win,
Chorus:
But I set fGm#ire to the rain,
Watched it pF#our as I touched your face,
Well, it buErned while I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your nBame, youGm#r name,
I set fGm#ire to the rain,
And I threw F#us into the flames,
Well, I fEelt something die,
'Cause I knew that that was the last tBime, the last Gm#time,
Bridge:
Sometimes Gm#I wake up by the dBoor,
And heard you cF#alling, must be waiting foEr you,
Even noGm#w when we're already ovBer,
I can't hF#elp myself from looking for yEou,
Chorus:
But I set fGm#ire to the rain,
Watched it pF#our as I touched your face,
Well, it buErned while I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your nBame, youGm#r name,
I set fGm#ire to the rain,
And I threw F#us into the flames,
Well, I fEelt something die,
'Cause I knew that that was the last tBime, the last Gm#time,
Outro:
[Chords Chorus]
Oh, no,
Let it burn, oh,
Let it burn,
Let it burn.

I let it fall, my heart,

It was dark and I was over,

My hands, they're strong,

To stand in your arms

without falling to your feet,

All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,

E B F#

And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,

But I set fire to the rain,

Watched it pour as I touched your face,

Well, it burned while I cried,

B Gm#

'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,

But I set fire to the rain,

Watched it pour as I touched your face,

Well, it burned while I cried,

I set fire to the rain,

And I threw us into the flames,

Well, I felt something die,

B Gm#

'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,

Bridge:

Gm# B

Sometimes I wake up by the door,

F# E

And heard you calling, must be waiting for you,

Even now when we're already over,

I can't help myself from looking for you,

But I set fire to the rain,

Watched it pour as I touched your face,

Well, it burned while I cried,

I set fire to the rain,

And I threw us into the flames,

Well, I felt something die,

Oh, no,

Let it burn, oh,

Let it burn,

Let it burn.
