  E5                         A5           E5               A5
I come to you with strange fire, I make an offering of love
    E5              A5                 E5               A5
The incense of my soul is burned by the fire in my blood
  E5                   A5          E5                          A5
I come with a softer answer to the questions that lie in your path
          E5                    A5         E5                  A5
I want to harbor you from the anger, find a refuge from the wrath


D5           E5     D5            E5
   This is a message,      a message of love
D5                        E5         D5                  E5
   Love that moves from the inside out,     love that never grows tired
B5                         A5                E5    A5  E5   A5
   I come to you (I come to you) with strange fire,      fire
 

  E5                    A5           E5               A5
Mercenaries of the shrine, now who are you to speak for god?
  E5                         A5           E5               A5
With haughty eyes and lying tongues and hands that shed innocent blood
  E5            A5           E5             A5
Now who delivered you the power to interpret calvary?
  E5             A5           E5               A5
You gamble away our freedom to gain your own authority


D5              E5                                D5              E5
   Find another state of mind, you know it's time we all learned to grab hold
D5            E5 [tacet]              E5    A5  E5   A5
   Strange fire burns with the motion of love,      love

D5   E5     D5   E5       D5   E5     B5   A5

E5                    A5     E5                    A5
Ah ah ahhh, ah ah ah ahhhhh;  Ah ah ahhh, ah ah ah ahhhhh


  E5                          A5              E5                      A5
When you learn to love yourself, you will dissolve all the stones that are cast
  E5                     A5           E5               A5
You will learn to burn the icing sky and to melt the waxen mask
  E5                             A5              E5                 A5
I said to have the gift of true release, this is a peace gonna take you higher
  E5                A5           E5               A5
Oh I come to you with my offering, I bring you strange fire


D5           E5     D5            E5
This is a message, a message of love
D5                        E5         D5                  E5
Love that moves from the inside out, love that never grows tired
B5                         A5                E5    A5  E5   A5   E5     A5
   I come to you (I come to you) with strange fire,      fire,      ahh...ahhh
B5                         A5                E5    A5  E5   A5  E5
   I come to you (I come to you) with strange fire__________________
