JT strums Asus2 for a while, then goes back to another verse.
During the end, he just strums Asus2 over his ad-libs until it
fades out. That's about all for this song. It's really easy and
fun, so try it.

LYRICS:
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to
CHORUS
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you look down upon me Jesus
You gotta help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body's achin' and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way
CHORUS
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
I've been walkin' my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
But there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
CHORUS
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend now
But I always thought that I'd see you baby, one more time again now
ad-libbed ending
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things coming my way this time around now
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you
Fire and rain, now
