I've seen   fire and I've seen rain 
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

Thought I'd see you one more time again 
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now 
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now...

Verse 1
-------

A              Em7                 D          [ A  Asus2 A ]
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone 
            E                      Gmaj7
Susanne the plans they made put an end to you 
  A               Em7           D             [ A  Asus2 A ]
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song 
               E              Gmaj7
I just can't remember who to send it to 


Chorus:
------

[D   D/C#  Bm7   D/E]     [ A   Asus2 A ]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain 
[D             D/C#  Bm7                D/E]  [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 
[D             D/C#  Bm7                D/E]  [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 
      G      D/F#             Em7       (A9 strum) (A strum)
But I always thought that I'd see you again 


Verse 2:
-------

A              Em7                 D                  [ A  Asus2 A ]
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus You've got to help me make a stand 
            E                      Gmaj7
You've just got to see me through another day 
A              Em7      D         [ A   Asus2 A ]
My body's aching and my time is at hand 
            E                      Gmaj7
And I won't make it any other way 


Chorus:
------

[D   D/C#  Bm7   D/E]     [ A   Asus2 A ]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain 
[D             D/C#  Bm7                D/E]  [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 
[D             D/C#  Bm7                D/E]  [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 
      G      D/F#             Em7       (A9 strum) (A strum)
But I always thought that I'd see you again 


Verse 3:
-------

A                          Em7          D     [ A  Asus2 A ]
Been walking my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun 
            E                      Gmaj7
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around 
A              Em7                                 D           [ A  Asus2 A ]
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come 
            E                      Gmaj7
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground 


Chorus:
------

[D   D/C#  Bm7   D/E]     [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain 
[D             D/C#  Bm7                D/E]  [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 
[D             D/C#  Bm7                D/E]  [ A  Asus2 A ]
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 
      G      D/F#             Em7       (A9 strum) (A strum)
But I always thought that I'd see you again 


Outro:
-----
            (A9 strum)         (A strum)
Thought I'd see you one more time again 
            (A9 strum)         (A strum)
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now 
            (A9 strum)         (A strum)
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now...
