[verse:1]
D
I'm riding in your car, you turn on the radio 
               Em                D
You pulling me close, I just say no 
              Em                          Bm
I say I don't like it, but you know I'm a liar 
               G      A   D
(Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire) 
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire 
D

Ooooh, fire

[verse:2]
D
Late at night, you're taking me home
                  Em                     D
You say you wanna stay, I say I wanna be alone 
              Em                           Bm
I say I don't love you, but you know I'm a liar
               G     A    D
(Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire) 
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire 
D
      (fire)

[bridge:]
          G                D
You had a hold on me right from the start 
  A                        D
a grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
   G                          D     
My nerves all jumpin', actin' like a fool
           E                        A  {let ring}     
Well, your kisses they burn, but my heart stays cool

{pause} 

[verse:3]
              D 
(Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah)
 Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
              Em                        D
Baby, you can bet, a love they couldn't deny
             Em                       Bm 
My words say split, but my words they lie
                G     A    D
(Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire)
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire 
D
      (fire)
Ooooh, fire
