verse 1: Billie Eilish 
Am 
Lips meet teeth and tongue 
Am 
My heart skips eight beats at once 
Am                                C 
If we were meant to be, we would have been by now 
Am                  Dm 
See what you wanna see, all I see is him right now 
Him right now 
 
Em            Am              F 
I'll sit and watch your car burn 
                G        Am 
With the fire that you started in me 
F          C        Dm             Em 
But you never came back to ask it out 
Em           Am          G   F 
Go ahead and watch my heart burn 
          G            Am 
With the fire that you started in me 
F         C             Dm 
But I'll never let you back to put it out 
(Thanks) 
 
verse 2: Billie Eilish 
Am 
Your love feels so fake 
Am 
My demands aren't high to make 
Am                  Dm                 Am 
If I could get to sleep, I would have slept by now 
      Am                      G 
Your lies will never keep, I think you need to blow 'em out 
C 
(Blow them out) 
 
Em            Am              F 
I'll sit and watch your car burn 
                G        Am 
With the fire that you started in me 
F          C        Dm             Em 
But you never came back to ask it out 
Em           Am          G   F 
Go ahead and watch my heart burn 
          G            Am         Dm 
With the fire that you started in me 
F         C             Dm 
But I'll never let you back to put it out 
(Out) 
 
verse 3: Vince Staples 
Am 
7-4-2008 
I still remember that 
Am 
Heaven sent a present my way 
I won't forget your laugh 
Am 
Packing everything when you leave 
You know you coming back 
Am 
Wanna see me down on my knees 
But that was made for a ring 
Am 
I try to wait for the storm to calm down 
            F 
But that's stubborn baby, leading a war 
                   Dm 
We droned down on each other 
Tryin' to even the score 
                   F            Em 
We all been found guilty in the court of aorta 
 
N.C. 
And I'll watch your car burn 
                         Am 
With the fire that you started in me 
 F             Dm                  G 
But you never came back to ask it out 
              Am             F 
Go ahead and watch my heart burn 
                        Am        F 
With the fire that you started in me 
         Dm 
But I'll never let you back to put it out 
 
Outro: Billie Eilish & Vince Staples 
Am                F 
Watch your car, watch your car burn 
I won't forget your laugh 
              Am                F 
Go ahead and watch my heart, watch my heart burn 
You know you coming back, you know you coming back 
Am                F 
Watch your car, watch your car burn 
(Go ahead and watch my heart, watch my heart burn) 
Tryin' to even the score 
             Am                F 
Go ahead and watch my heart, watch my heart burn 
                      Em       Am 
Found guilty in the court of aorta
