C                                           F
We know it's wrong  to let this fire burn between us
      C                                          G7
We've got to stop this wild desire in you and in me
         C                                                 F
So we'll let the flame burn once again until the thrill is gone
F                        G7           C
Then we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning



          F                                C
We're two people caught up in a flame that has to die out soon
  F                                  C           G7
I didn't mean to start this fire and neither did you
C                                                         F
So tonight when you hold me tight we'll let the fire burn on
F                       G7           C
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning



C                                                      F
Each time when we meet we both agree that it's for the last time
    C                              G7
But out of your arms I'm out of my mind
         C                                                     F
So we'll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
F                       G7           C
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning



G7        C                                                     F
Yes we'll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
F                       C
And we'll sweep out the ashes
F                   C
We'll sweep out the ashes
F                   G7           C
We'll sweep out the ashes in the morning
