Forest Fire � Lloyd Cole and the Commotions from the album �Rattlesnakes�

 	        C	       Em	
She crossed herself as she put on her things
        C                           Em
She has promised once before not to live this way
                  F                          C
If she don�t calm down she will burn herself out
              Dm          F                    C
Like a forest fire, well doesn�t that make you smile

C					       Em	
If you don�t slow down, I swear that I�ll come round
                 C                     Em
And mess up your place, let�s go for a spin
                           F
They say we shouldn�t even know each other
                    C
And that we�ll be undone
                  Dm   F              C
Don�t it make you smile like a forest fire

I believe in love, I�ll believe in anything
That�s gonna get me what I want and get me off my knees
Then we�ll burn your house down, don�t it feel so good
There�s a forest fire every time we get together

C                                 Em
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo 
C				  Em
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo 
    F
Hey pick you up, put you down

Rip you up and spin you round
     C
Just like we said we would
               Dm 
�cause we�re a forest fire
            F                         C
Believe you me, we�ll tear this place down

If we get caught in this wind then we could burn the ocean
If we get caught in this scene we�re gonna be undone
It�s just a simple metaphor, it�s for a burning love
Don�t it make you smile like a forest fire

Brilliant song by Lloyd Cole, no tabs in print for the band so hopefully you will enjoy this !
