[Intro]
 
A G D A    E G  A
 
[Verse 1]
 
               Em                  D             A
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
            E                      G
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
  A               Em            D               A
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
               E             G            D
I just can't remember who to send it to
 
[Chorus]
 
D         Bm                 A
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
          D                 Bm                  A
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
          D                   Bm               A
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
      G                       Em       A
But I always thought that I'd see you again
 
[Verse 2]
 
          A                  Em
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus
              D              A
You've got to help me make a stand
                   E               G
You've just got to see me through another day
A         Em            D          A
My body's aching and my time is at hand
            E           G           D
And I won't make it any other way
 
[Chorus]
 
D             Bm                 A
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
          D                 Bm                  A
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
          D                   Bm               A
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
      G                       Em       A
But I always thought that I'd see you again
 
[Verse 3]
 
     A                     Em            D                       A
Been walking my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun
                    E                     G
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
              A                    Em                D                    A
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
                 E                  G                      D
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
 
[Chorus]
 
D             Bm                 A
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
          D                 Bm                  A
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
          D                   Bm               A
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
      G                       Em                            A
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again
 
[Outro]
 
            G                Em    A
Thought I'd see you one more time again
               G                    Em             A
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now
            G                    Em               A
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now . . .
