After rocking Collegetown Bagels on Jan 31, I need
some new material to play, and I think this one will
work well. Amy really likes these solo tunes, and
so do I.

verse continues similar to intro
I have spent nights with matches and knives
Leaning over ledges only two flights up
Cutting my heart burning my soul nothing left to hold
Nothin left but blood and fire
You have spent nights thinking of me missing my arms but you needed to leave
A G D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Leaving my cuts leaving my burns hoping I'd learn
CHORUS
G D Dsus2 A Asus2 A Asus2
But blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
G D Dsus2 A Asus2 A Asus2
And my nights of desire they're calling me back to your fold
G D Dsus2 A
And I'm callin' you callin' you from ten thousand miles away
G D A Asus4
Won't you wet my fire with your love babe
I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give
Give back as much as I need you 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 gave away
CHORUS
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
CHORUS
G D A Asus4
Won't you wet my fire with your love babe
G D A
Wet my fire with your love
