(Ain't nothin' but a mistake tell me why)
              D        G
I never wanna hear you say
Em        D    G                  Em        B
I want it that way   <---2nd TIME:(I want it that way)


VERSE 2:
    Em    C G
Am I your fire
      Em   C G
Your one desire
        Em      C   G
Yes I know it's too late
    Em        D    G
But I want it that way

-TO CHORUS-


BRIDGE:
Em                        Em-1
Now I can see that we're fallin' apart
         C                        Am    D
>From the way that it used to be, yeah
    Em                   Em-1
No matter the distance I want you to know
     Am                   Dsus4   D
That deep down inside of me

You are my fire

The one desire

You are, you are, you are, you are
