fire and rain chords
james taylor 1970

capo iii

A G D A A E G A

Em D A Asus2 A
just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
E G
susanne the plans they made put an end to you
A Em D A Asus2 A
i walked out this morning and i wrote down this song
E G G/D
i just can’t remember who to send it to

D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen fire and i’ve seen rain
D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen sunny days that i thought would never end
D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
G Em A A7
but i always thought that i’d see you again

A Em
won’t you look down upon me , jesus
D A Asus2 A
you’ve got to help me make a stand
E G
you’ve just got to see me through another day
A Em D A Asus2 A
my body’s aching and my time is at hand
E G G/D
and i won’t make it any other way

D Bm A Asus2 A
oh , i’ve seen fire and i’ve seen rain
D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen sunny days that i thought would never end
D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
G Em A A7
but i always thought that i’d see you again

A Em D A Asus2 A
been walking my mind to an easy time , my back turned towards the sun
E G
lord knows when the cold wind blows it’ll turn your head around
A Em D A Asus2 A
well , there’s hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
E G G/D
sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

D Bm A Asus2 A
oh , i’ve seen fire and i’ve seen rain
D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen sunny days that i thought would never end
D Bm A Asus2 A
i’ve seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
G Em A A7
but i always thought that i’d see you , baby , one more time again

G Em A
thought i’d see you one more time again
G Em A
there’s just a few things coming my way this time around , now
G Em A
thought i’d see you , thought i’d see you fire and rain , now . . .
