Capo 5
{Intro}
[Am] [F] [C] [G]
{Verse 1}
[Am]The way you move is like a [F]full on rainstorm
[C]And I’m a house of [G]cards
You’re the[Am] kind of reckless that should [F]send me running
But I[C] kinda know that I [G]won’t get far
[Am]And you stood there in front[F] of me just
[C]Close [G]enough to [Am]touch
[F]Close enough to hope you couldn’t [F]see
What I was thinking of
{Chorus}
Drop everything [Am]now
Meet me in the [F]pouring rain
[C]Kiss me on the sidewalk
[G]Take away the pain
‘Cause [Am]I see, [F]sparks fly, when-[C]ever you smile[G]
Get me with those [Am]green eyes, baby
As the [F]lights go down
Gimme [C]something that’ll haunt me [G]when you’re not around
‘Cause [Am]I see, [F]sparks fly, when-[C]ever you [G]smile[Am] [F] [C] [G]
{Verse 2}
[Am]My mind forgets[F] to remind me, [C]your a bad idea[G]
[Am]You touch me once and it’s[F] really something
You find[C] I’m even better than you,[G] imagined I would be
[F]I’m on my guard for the [G]rest of the world
But with you[C] I [G]know its no [Am]good
[F]And I could wait patiently
But[G] I really wish you would
{Chorus}
Drop everything [Am]now
Meet me in the [F]pouring rain
[C]Kiss me on the sidewalk
[G]Take away the pain
‘Cause [Am]I see, [F]sparks fly, when-[C]ever you smile[G]
Get me with those [Am]green eyes, baby
As the [F]lights go down
Gimme [C]something that’ll haunt me [G]when you’re not around
‘Cause [Am]I see, [F]sparks fly, when-[C]ever you [G]smile[Am] [F] [C] [G]
{Bridge}
I [Am]run my fingers [F]through your hair
And [C]watch the lights go [G]wild
Just [Am]keep on keeping your [F]eyes on me
Its just [C]wrong enough to make it feel [G]right
And [Am]lead me up the stair-[F]case
Won’t you [C]whisper soft and [G]slow
I’m [Am]captivated [F]by you baby
Like a [C]fireworks show[G]
{Chorus}
Drop everything [Am]now
Meet me in the [F]pouring rain
[C]Kiss me on the sidewalk
[G]Take away the pain
‘Cause [Am]I see, [F]sparks fly, when-[C]ever you smile[G]
Get me with those [Am]green eyes, baby
As the [F]lights go down
Gimme [C]something that’ll haunt me [G]when you’re not around
‘Cause [Am]I see, [F]sparks fly, when-[C]ever you [G]smile[Am] [F]
{Outtro}
And the [C]sparks fly[G]
Oh baby [Am]smile[F]
And the [C]sparks fly. [G] [Am]
