The Burning Heart - Lee Kernaghan

The Burning Heart chords

INTRO: E

VERSE:

E
She came down from up near Katherine
     A              E
Moved in across the ridge
        E                            B
She was everything a young man could desire
E
Out there in the ranges 
   A               E
In secret we would meet
  E             B              E
My heart ran as wild as desert fire


CHORUS:
               E
Like a burning sun beating down
              B               E
She sparked a flame on virgin ground

                  A            E
And if by chance a fire should start
             B                E      E
No one could tame the burning heart


VERSE:

         E
Well her father owned the station
        A                E
Where I rode the boundry fences
       E                                  B
And he made it clear for all the hands to see
       E
That a man could easily wind up
       A                E
On the wrong end of his shot gun
        E               B         E
And his little girl was only seventeen


CHORUS:
               E
Like a burning sun beating down
              B               E
She sparked a flame on virgin ground
                  A            E
And if by chance a fire should start
             B                E
No one could tame the burning heart
 

BREAK: E  A E  E  B  E F

She came on me like the summer
        Bb                 F
wrapped around me like the wind
    F                          C
And my defenses buckled in the heat
F
Out there on the station
    Bb            F
The sun set amber glow
   F              C           F
As our lips met a fire was released

CHORUS:

               F
Like a burning sun beating down
              C               F
She sparked a flame on virgin ground
                  Bb           F
And if by chance a fire should start
             C                F
No one could tame the burning heart

                    F
Just like a burning sun that was beating down
              C               F
She sparked a flame on virgin ground
                  Bb           F
And if by chance a fire should start
             C                F
No one could tame the burning heart
C                F         F    C    F
  Ooh my burning heart
