Blood And Fire
Who was I when I could sing this?
[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=002220; A(9)=002200; Asus=002230; D=x00232; D(9)=x00230; Dsus=x00233;
G=320003; G(9)=300003 or 320203.]

[intro]
AWell I have spent Gnights with Dmatches and knives
Leaning over Aledges only Gtwo flights Dup
Cutting my Aheart, burning my Gsoul, with Dnothing left to hold
Nothing Aleft, but Gblood and Dfire
You have Aspent nights thinking of Gme, missing my Darms but you needed to leave
Leaving my Acuts, leaving my Gburns, hoping DI’d learn
GBut blood and Dfire are too much for these Arestless arms to hold
And my Gnights of Ddesire, they’re calling me Ahere, back to your fold
And I’m Gcalling you, Dcalling you, from Aten thousand miles away
Won’t you wet my Gfire with your Dlove, Ababe
I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give
And’ll give back as much as I need, y’know and they still have the will to live
‘Cause I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
But I feel forsaken, you know like the things I, I gave away
And blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire, they’re calling me here, back to your fold
And I’m calling you, calling you, from ten thousand miles away
Won’t you wet my fire with your love, babe
I am intense, I’m in need, I’m in pain, I’m in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
And blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire, they’re calling me here, back to your fold
And I’m calling you, calling you, from ten thousand miles away
Won’t you wet my fire with your love, babe
Won’t you wet my fire with your love, baby, hold me
