[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
This one goes out to the one I love
This one goes out to the one I've left behind
A simple prop to occupy my time
This one goes out to the one I love

[Chorus]
Fire!
Fire!

[Verse 2]
This one goes out to the one I love
This one goes out to the one I've left behind
A simple prop to occupy my time
This one goes out to the one I love (Love)

[Chorus]
Fire! (She's comin' down on her own, now)
Fire! (She's comin' down on her own)

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
This one goes out to the one I love (Love)
This one goes out to the one I've left behind
Another prop has occupied my time
This one goes out to the one I love (Love)

[Chorus]
Fire! (She's comin' down on her own, now)
Fire! (She's comin' down on her own)
Fire! (She's comin' down on her own, now)
Fire! (She's comin' down on her own)

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
