_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ of you may not know that I wrote my last [Gb] album,
_ Reality Show, while living at home with my [Ab] parents.
_ _ _ You see, I had tried to do the adult thing,
and it just wasn't working for me.
Do we have [Db] any 30-year-olds who just feel like a kid?
[E] _ _ _ [Gb] I felt like when I was like 19, 20,
that when I got 30, I was gonna have all this shit figured out,
but I just still don't.
I also figured _ [Db] that I needed to write a love song,
because I know a lot of my songs _ is me basically _ _ bashing men
and talking about, I'm gonna bust your windows out,
I'm giving them 10 seconds.
But that's because I've dealt with a lot of trash-ass men,
so that's been my experience,
and I [E] had to write from my experience, you know?
_ _ [B] _
But I was [Ab] like, you know what, I want to _ _ write about love.
And the closest relationship that I know
_ that's functioning [Em] and healthy and amazing is my parents,
so a [Db] lot of the things _ _ [Bm] _ that I write about
_ in [Ab] the actual song are based [Abm] on their relationship.
_ _ _ [Db] _
_ [E] _ So I was [Db] writing a song, and [Ab] the first line,
I want to be good to you, baby,
_ is one of my favorite [E] lines because I feel like,
_ _ you know, a lot of people, when they write [Ab] love songs,
[Abm] it's coming from a place of, [Gb] you know, _ what can you do for me?
How are you going to show me that you love me?
But for me, I wanted to write _ a song basically saying,
I want to be good to you,
and I don't know if a lot of you will admit,
but [Ab] I was in a relationship that wasn't great, _ _
_ [Abm] _ _ but I was like not [C] the best girlfriend,
and I [E] had to really admit to myself, like, you know what,
there are some things that you can do [Abm] a lot better.
But I was [B] not a great girlfriend,
and so with this song, I was like,
[E] I want to be good to somebody, I want to be good for [A] somebody,
as well as them [Bb] being good to and for [Abm] me.
So I don't know about you guys, [E] but it's scary to fall in love.
It's scary _ to give your heart to somebody,
especially after you've had it broken before.
You know, you're like, [Ab] _ _ I [Gb] don't know if I want to do this.
So I was kind of basically telling the guy,
like, I understand how you feel, I know it,
but come on, we got to take this leap.
[E] And so the song, Let It Burn, and [B] the lyric, Let It Burn,
is basically saying, let's go forward.
Like, let's move, let's let it [E] take all over [Db] us.
We can't do nothing about it anyway,
because when love comes for you, it's [B] going to get you anyway.
So just, [Bb] you know, [G] just let it take [Gm] over you.
So _ [Em] that was [Eb] my inspiration for the song. _
I [E] almost actually didn't finish [Ab] the song.
[Bb] I worked on it with Key Wayne, and I [A] was writing it,
and I got to, like, [Ab] the [Db] verse and the hook,
and I was like, [Dbm] _
_ [Abm] I don't know.
I'm like, it's all right.
And [Eb] I feel like sometimes we are our biggest [Bb] critics,
and _
[E] like you said, there are probably, _ you know,
there are some [Abm] things that you haven't [Gb] finished. _ _ _ _
[Ab] You going to finish it?
Good, thank you.
Because I would like to [A] see it. _ _ _ _ _ _
But, you know, I would [Db] just like to say,
push through that feeling, you know what I'm saying?
Because sometimes, like, your biggest blessing
is on the other side of fear.
_ So I'm glad that I actually wrote it,
because a lot of people fuck with it.
So _ _ [Gb] _ _
I'm going to [E] do it for you guys right [Ab] now,
if that's all right.
[Dbm] _ _ _ [Abm] Everybody. _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Dbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ Baby, I want [Bb] to be a guest to your wedding.
[Abm] Ooh.
_ _ Call me Peggy Barton, I'm from the government [Db] line.
That's why.
_ I want [B] to walk down one of [Gb] those cold, cold nights.
[Db] I want to [Ab] be what you least expect it.
Ooh.
And you can't respect it.
[Gb] Ooh.
[Db] That crazy [B] little thing,
that's feeling [Gb] crazy,
just rush, until [Ab] that is _ done.
_ Just let it _ burn.
[Eb] _ _ [Gb] Because there's [Db] no one here,
_ _ that's [B] short of time.
_ _ _ Let [Ab] it burn.
_ _ Baby, let it burn.
_ _ Just let [Db] it burn.
_ _ Let it, [Ab] let it, let it, let it,
let it, let it, let it, let it, let it burn.
Let your heart go, baby, can you feel it?
Carrying you, _ that's right, [Db] that's love,
when it [E] comes, you [B] never wanna give it [Ab] up.
[Ebm] And baby, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dbm] _
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ [E] _ _ _
[Db] and I want you so honey,
[B] _ _
[Db] I want you more _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ than you were. _ _
So if you're ready [E] to take this [B] ride,
_ we can go all around the world, baby.
[Ab] We can even go to the sky.
And I know a say, [Abm] _
