Practicing with this song, you could use this type of music software available for your
PC or MAC, called Back Pocket Band
Looking at the chord chart, we would play the vi chord (Dminor),
then to the I chord (F), on to the V chord which is C and then
we move on to the ii chord with Gm. Bb is the IV chord.

So, if you aren't familiar with reading notes, hear is a chord chart to what
is listed above:
D/DFA
F/CFA
C/CEG
G/BbDG
Bb/BbDF
Absolute C |
|
|
First Chord: D minor = DFA Second Chord: F Major = CFA
Absolute C |
|
|
The 4th chord to the song is G minor (BbDG). Yes, I skipped C chord (CEG). You know it!
Absolute C |
|
Last chord to the song, BbDF
Now, what gives the piano sounding with that special part is hearing those chords played
with running eighth notes separately, with loose wrist and smooth broken r.h. chords.
R.H. Arpeggio Chords (Broken Chords) |
Intro: Dm, F, C, Gm Verse: Dm F I let it fall, my heart, C Gm And as it fell you rose to claim it. Dm F It was dark and I was over, C Bb Until you kissed my lips and you saved me Verse Dm F.... My hands they're strong, but my knees were far too weak, Stand in your arms without fall to your your feet, Refrain: Dm Gm But there's a side to you that I never knew, I never knew. Dm Dm All the things you'd say, they where never true, never true, Bb C And the games you'd play, you would always, always win. [Chorus: ] Dm But I set fire to the rain, C Watch it pour as I touched your face, Gm well it burn while I cry, Dm C Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name! Verse: When I'm with you I could stay there, Close my eyes, feel you're here forever, You and me together, nothing is better! Refrain: Cause there's a side to you that I never, never knew, All the things you'd say they where never true, never true, And the games you'd play, you would always, always win. [Chorus: ] But I set fire to the rain, Watch it pour as I touched your face, well it burned while I cry, Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name! I set fire to the rain And I threw us into the flames And it felt something die, Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time! Bridge: Bb F/A Sometimes I wake up by the door, Am C That heart you caught, must be waiting for you, Bb F/A Even now when we're already over, Am C I can't help myself from looking for you [Chorus: ] I set fire to the rain, Watch it pour as I touch your face, well it burn when I cry, Cause I heard it screaming your name, your name I set fire to the rain, And I threw us into the flames Cause I knew that was the last time The last time, oh, oh! Outro: Chorus Chords Let it burn! Let it burn!

whats Gm? and Dm?
Help Please!
Remember to flat the third to form a minor chord.
G minor = GBbD because G Major looks like, GBD
D minor = DFA because D Major looks like, DF#A
Hope this helps!
