Verse 1
[Em] Love is a fever
[Am] And is burning me alive
[B7] It can't be [C7]tamed [B7]or [Em]satisfied
[Em] There is no mercy
[Am] For the fallen or for the weak
[B7] Love is a [C7]nasty [B7]word to [Em]speak.

I don't wanna [Am]love him anymore
He's nothing [Em]like the man I loved before
[B7] But the pain gets [C7]real [B7]comfortable
[Em] When it's all ya got.
Ashes [Am]and smoke they can't compete
Not [Em]even hell can take the heat
[B7] And I be sliding off [C7]of my seat[B7]
For [Em]his flame. [E5] [F#5] [G5] His [G#5]love is like

You can't [Em]survive it, there ain't no way
So [B7]tonight I'm gonna [C7]stay
And [B7]play with his [C7]fire

Wanna play with his [C7]fire
[B7]On the floor child, [Em]child.

[Em] This kinda love
[Am] Don't need no bed or satin sheets
[B7] Nothing soft,[C7] nothing [B7]soft or [Em]sweet to drink
[Em] Love is a lesson,[Am] you were born to never learn
[B7] And your [C7]soul will [B7]beg to [Em]burn
Refrain
I don't wanna [Am]love him anymore
He's nothing [Em]like the man I loved before
And there's a [B7]sign above the [C7]door[B7]
Saying [Em]no way out.
Ashes [Am]and smoke they can't compete
Not [Em]even hell can take the heat
[B7] And I be sliding off [C7]of my seat[B7]
For [Em]his flame.
