[Verse]
     EmFather, I’m sorry I've hBmurt you.
I’m sorry I’ve stumbled like tEmhis.
This heart that still beats
from the Bmbreath of your lips
is a heart that’d kill you with a kiCss.
And I know that you still choose to lGove me,
and it’s something that I cannot eBmarn,
but I turned away and I rCan toward the flames.
What a wDonderful way to get burned.
[Chorus]
What a wonderful way to get Gburned.Em  
You Amgave me it all.
I threw it away
I Cplayed with the fire.
What a Dwonderful way to get EmburnedBm.
Em Bm
[Verse]
     EmI faked love with a tall glass of Bmwater.
Wasn’t long before she had her Emfill.
‘Cause she had enough of the lBmack of our love
and now she’s going out for the Ckill.
You told me you’d love me fGorever,
but Jesus, will you ever lBearn
that your place in my heart
has been fCilled with such dark.
You won’t sDee me when you have returned.
[Chorus]
What a wonderful way to get Gburned.Em  
You gAmave me it all.
I threw it away
I pClayed with the fire.
What a wDonderful way to get bGurned.Em  
You Amgave me it all.
I threw it away
I plCayed with the fire.
What a Dwonderful way
What a wonderful way
What a wonderful way
[Bridge]
You brought Bmair to my lungs
and then I turned my back.
You still loCved me despite,
but I hated the fact that I hGated myself
more than I ever loved
so the lDove that you had
was just not good enough
and I mBmiss you so much
that it burns in my chest
like the fCirst cigarette that I smoked to impress.
If I hGad known then what I’ve done to you now,
I’d pour gDas on myself with it lit in my mouth.
[Chorus]
What a wonderful way to get bGurned.Em  
You Amgave me it all.
I threw it away
I plCayed with the fire.
What a wDonderful way to get bGurned.Em  
You Amgave me it all.
I threw it away
I plCayed with the fire.
What a wDonderful way
What a wonderful way
What a wonderful way
To get burned.

[Intro]

Em Bm Em Bm

[Verse]

Em Bm

Father, I’m sorry I've hurt you.

I’m sorry I’ve stumbled like this.

This heart that still beats

from the breath of your lips

is a heart that’d kill you with a kiss.

And I know that you still choose to love me,

and it’s something that I cannot earn,

but I turned away and I ran toward the flames.

What a wonderful way to get burned.

[Chorus]

G Em

What a wonderful way to get burned.

You gave me it all.

I threw it away

I played with the fire.

D Em Bm

What a wonderful way to get burned.

Em Bm

[Verse]

Em Bm

I faked love with a tall glass of water.

Wasn’t long before she had her fill.

‘Cause she had enough of the lack of our love

and now she’s going out for the kill.

You told me you’d love me forever,

but Jesus, will you ever learn

that your place in my heart

has been filled with such dark.

You won’t see me when you have returned.

[Chorus]

G Em

What a wonderful way to get burned.

You gave me it all.

I threw it away

I played with the fire.

D G Em

What a wonderful way to get burned.

You gave me it all.

I threw it away

I played with the fire.

What a wonderful way

[Bridge]

You brought air to my lungs

and then I turned my back.

You still loved me despite,

but I hated the fact that I hated myself

more than I ever loved

so the love that you had

was just not good enough

and I miss you so much

that it burns in my chest

like the first cigarette that I smoked to impress.

If I had known then what I’ve done to you now,

I’d pour gas on myself with it lit in my mouth.

[Chorus]

G Em

What a wonderful way to get burned.

You gave me it all.

I threw it away

I played with the fire.

D G Em

What a wonderful way to get burned.

You gave me it all.

I threw it away

I played with the fire.

What a wonderful way

To get burned.
