    Dm - Bb - F - C (2x)

 

Dm                                           Bb                     - F                                 C

1.  The way you move is like a full on rainstorm,   and I‘m a house of cards,

                     - Dm                                              Bb         

    you‘re the         kind of reckless that should send me running,

            - F                               C

    but I      kinda know that I won‘t get far.

Bb                                        C                   - F               C           Dm

    And you stood there in front of me, just      close enough to touch,

Bb                                                         C

    close enough to hope you couldn‘t see what I was thinking of.

 

                            Dm                            Bb 

Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain,

  F                                     C

kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain,

           Dm        Bb                  F                C

‘cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile.

                                 Dm                               Bb

Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down,

                F                                           C

give me something that‘ll haunt me when you‘re not around,

          Dm        Bb                 F          - C      Dm - Bb - F - C

‘cause I see sparks fly whenever y….ou smile.

 

     Dm                    Bb                          - F                         C

2.       My mind forgets to remind me,       you‘re a bad idea,

Dm                                          - Bb

    you touch me once and it‘s        really something,

            F                                      C

    you find I‘m even better that you imagined I would be.

Bb                                       C

    I‘m on my guard for the rest of the world,

                    F                          Dm

    but with you I know it‘s no good,

Bb                                              - C

    and I could wait patiently but         I really wish you would…

 

+  CHORUS

 

       Dm                      Bb                             F                            C 

+  I run my fingers through your hair and watch the lights go wild,

            Dm                             Bb

    just keep on keeping your eyes on me,

                    F                                          C

    it‘s just wrong enough to make it feel right.

            Dm                     Bb                              F                       C

    And lead me up the staircase, won‘t you whisper soft and slow,

          Dm            Bb                           F                 C

    I‘m captivated by you, baby, like a fireworks show.

 

                            Dm                            Bb 

Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain,

  F                                     C

kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain,

           Dm        Bb                  F                C

‘cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile.

                                 Dm                               Bb

Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down,

                F                                            C

give me something that‘ll haunt me when you‘re not around,

          Dm        Bb                 F          - C      Dm - Bb

‘cause I see sparks fly whenever y….ou smile.

 

                     F        - C

+  And the sparks fl….y !

                        Dm  - Bb                  F        - C    - Dm

    Oh, baby, smile,         and the sparks fl….y.
