Set Fire To The Rain by Adele






                       Set Fire To The Rain





STANDARD TUNING
CAPO IS USED: I use it on the 4th as I think it sounds best there but it
seems to sound just as good on the 5th fret. Whichever sounds best to you.

Intro: Chord fingerings;
Am - 002210
C  - 032010
G  - 320000 (This way it sounds most representational of the song)
F  - 133210


Intro goes like this:

||----------------------------------------------------------------------|
||---1-------1----1---------1-3-1-0--0-------0----1------1--------------|
||-------2-------2----0---0--------------0-------0---2-------2---2------|
||-----2---2---2----2---2--------------0---0---0---3---3---3---3--------|
||---0-------0----3-----------------------------------------------------|
||-----------------------------------3-------3----1------1--------------|
    Am            C                  G            F


That intro pattern repeats through first verses and is the same in all verses afterwards.

"I let it fall..."                                 
||----------------------------------------------------------------------|
||---1-------1----1---------1-3-1-0--0-------0----1------1--------------|
||-------2-------2----0---0--------------0-------0---2-------2---2------|
||-----2---2---2----2---2--------------0---0---0---3---3---3---3--------|
||---0-------0----3-----------------------------------------------------|
||-----------------------------------3-------3----1------1--------------|
    Am            C                  G            F

Play it through until you reach the line "...without falling to your feet."
Then play the Refrain.


Refrain is this:
"There's a side..."
||----------------------------------------------------------------------|
||--------------------1-----1-----1-------------------------------------|
||----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----------------------------------|
||------3-----3-----3-----2-----2-----------[THIS IS PLAYED TWICE]------|
||--------3-----3-----0-----0-----0-------------------------------------|
||----1-----1-----1-----------------------------------------------------|
      F                Am


On the third time through you play the F shape followed by the G shape:
                     "...always win always win."
||----------------------------------------------------------------------|
||--------------------0-----0-----0-----0-----0-------------------------|
||----2-----2-----2-----0-----0-----0-----0-----------------------------|
||------3-----3-----3-----0-----0-----0-----0---------------------------|
||--------3-----3-------------------------------------------------------|
||----1-----1-----1---3-----3-----3-----3-----3-------------------------|
      F               G



Chorus:
"But I set Fire..."
||------------------------------------|
||----1-----1-----1---1-----1-----1---|
||------2-----2-----2---2-----2-----2-|
||--------2-----2---------2-----2-----|
||----0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0---|
||------------------------------------|
     Am

"Watched it pour..."
||------------------------------------|
||---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0----|
||-----0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0--|
||-------0-----0---------0-----0------|
||------------------------------------|
||---3-----3-----3---3-----3-----3----|
     G

"Let it burn while I cried..."
||------------------------------------|
||------------------------------------|
||---2-----2-----2---2-----2-----2----|
||-----3-----3-----3---3-----3-----3--|
||-------3-----3---------3-----3------|
||---1-----1-----1---1-----1-----1----|
     F

"...your name."
||------------------------------------|
||---3-----3-----3---0-----0-----0----|
||-----2-----2-----2---0-----0-----0--|
||-------0-----0---------0-----0------|
||---0-----0-----0--------------------|
||-------------------3-----3-----3----|
     Dm              G

(The Dm seemed best to sound as close as possible, but don't trust my
hearing if you think there's a better alternative) 

Only other bit that differs that I thought might sound good is for the
Bridge. Essentially you play the same notes to the same bar as the Verses
but instead of finger picking you palm mute the notes with downstrokes to
break before the final Chorus.

"Sometimes I wake up by the door..."
||---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------------------|
||---1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1------------------| [And obviously the same with the C  ]
||---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2------------------| [chord, the G chord and the F chord.]
||---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2------------------| [At this stage each chord is played ]
||---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------------------| [8 times each, and the set is played]
||---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------------------| [through twice to create the bridge.]
     x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

The final part of the song which is the outro is the same notes as the
chorus repeated until the end of the same which play behind the final lyrics;

"Oooooh,
Let it burn, 
Let it burn..." etc.

And I threw us into the flames,

Well, I felt something die,

Even now when we're already over,

Capo on the fifth

Intro: Am, C, G, F

Verse:
          Am      C
I let it fall, my heart,
           G                    F
And as it fell, you rose to claim it,
        Am            C
It was dark and I was over,
           G                     F
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me,
    Am             C              
My hands, they're strong, 
          G                F
but my knees were far too weak,
     Am           C
To stand in your arms 
          G               F
without falling to your feet,


Refrain:
               F                 Am
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
          F                          Am
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
         F                            G
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,


Chorus:
           Am
But I set fire to the rain,
            G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
           F
Well, it burned while I cried,
                                      Dm          G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,


Verse:
      Am       C
When lay with you
          G           F 
I could stay there, close my eyes, 
          Am     C
feel you here forever,
        G                        F
You and me together, nothing is better,


Refrain:
               F                 Am
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,

All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true,
         F                            G
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win,


Chorus:
           Am
But I set fire to the rain,
            G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,

Well, it burned while I cried,
                                      Dm          G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,
       Am
I set fire to the rain,
            G
And I threw us into the flames,
         F
Well, I felt something die,
                                      Dm             G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,


Bridge:
          Am                C
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
               G                        F
And heard you calling, must be waiting for you,
      Am                     C
Even now when we're already over,
         G                        F
I can't help myself from looking for you,


Chorus:
           Am
But I set fire to the rain,
            G
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
           F
Well, it burned while I cried,
                                      Dm          G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name,

Well, I felt something die,
                                      Dm             G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time,

Oh, no,
Let it burn, oh,
Let it burn,
Let it burn.

All the things you'd say they where never true, never true,
And the games you'd play, you would always, always win.

Watch it pour as I touched your face,

I set fire to the rain,
Watch it pour as I touch your face,

And I threw us into the flames
Cause I knew that was the last time
The last time, oh, oh!
