C 
G 
C 
The first time I loved,
F 
I didn't know how good it could be
C 
To have another heart,
seeing you,
G 
everything you hoped they'd see
Gm 
G 
C 
If someone said the
feeling wouldn't last,
F 
there's no way I'd ever be lieve
C 
Something I felt so true and fast
G 
C 
Could never slip away from me
F 
C 
But the flames of passion burned it up
G 
C 
When early days of attraction passed
F 
C 
Like a meteor entering the atmosphere
G 
C 
G 
C 
Burning too hot to last
G 
C 
And I'm so tired of hearing
that a burning heart
Is the only love that's true
F 
C 
And that the mystery of lovin' only lasts
G 
Just as long as the love is new
C 
Cause when the first part's done
The real work starts
Dm 
C 
F 
So get down and roar up  your slaves
C 
The real trick is buildin' an enduring love
G 
C 
The kind that don't ever fade
F 
C 
So the flames of passion can't burn it up
G 
C 
From early days of attraction past
F 
C 
Like a meteor entering the atmosphere
G 
C 
G 
C 
Burning too hot to last
Cm 
F 
Am 
When love's not tempered
by common trust
C 
Hearts can't take the strain
Em 
Am 
When the fire's all gone but you got left
C 
It's a smoky kind of pain
