[Intro]
E C#m E C#m 2x
[Verse]
E C#m E
I get up in the evening
C#m E
and I ain't got nothing to say
C#m
I come home in the morning
E C#m A
I go to bed feeling the same way
F#m A
I ain't nothing but tired
F#m E
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
C#m E C#m B
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
[Chorus]
(
B)
You can't start a fire
A
You can't start a fire without a spark
F#m A
This gun's for hire
F#m E
even if we're just dancing in the dark
[Verse]
E C#m E
Message keeps getting clearer
C#m E
radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place
C#m
I check my look in the mirror
E C#m A
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
F#m A
Man I ain't getting nowhere
F#m E
I'm just living in a dump like this
C#m E
There's something happening somewhere
C#m B
baby I just know that there is
[Chorus]
(
B)
You can't start a fire
A
You can't start a fire without a spark
F#m A
This gun's for hire
F#m E
even if we're just dancing in the dark
[Interlude]
E C#m E C#m 2x
[Bridge]
C#m E
You sit around getting older
A B C#m
there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
E
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
A B
come on baby this laugh's on me
[Verse]
E C#m E
Stay on the streets of this town
C#m E
and they'll be carving you up alright
C#m E
They say you gotta stay hungry
C#m A
hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight
F#m A
I'm dying for some action
F#m E
I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
C#m E
I need a love reaction
C#m B
come on now baby gimme just one look
[Chorus]
(
B)
A
You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
F#m A
This gun's for hire
F#m B
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
You can't start a fire
A
worrying about your little world falling apart
F#m A
This gun's for hire
F#m E A
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
F#m E A
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
F#m E A
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
F#m E A
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Hey baby
