[Intro]
B  G#m  B  G#m  2x


[Verse]
B               G#m    B
I get up in the evening
                G#m         B
and I ain't got nothing to say
                   G#m
I come home in the morning
  B         G#m               E
I go to bed feeling the same way
                    C#m   E
I ain't nothing but tired
             C#m                     B
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
          G#m  B         G#m                F#
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help


[Chorus]
(F#)
You can't start a fire
                                 E
You can't start a fire without a spark
               C#m  E
This gun's for hire
                   C#m             B
even if we're just dancing in the dark


[Verse]
B                     G#m    B
Message keeps getting clearer
                   G#m                B
radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place
                       G#m
I check my look in the mirror
  B               G#m                   E
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
                    C#m    E
Man I ain't getting nowhere
         C#m                    B
I'm just living in a dump like this
                            G#m      B
There's something happening somewhere
            G#m              F#
baby I just know that there is


[Chorus]
(F#)
You can't start a fire
                                 E
You can't start a fire without a spark
               C#m  E
This gun's for hire
                   C#m             B
even if we're just dancing in the dark


[Interlude]
B  G#m  B  G#m  2x


[Bridge]
G#m                     B
You sit around getting older
E                       F#                 G#m
there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
                             B
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
E                 F#
come on baby this laugh's on me


[Verse]
B                           G#m  B
Stay on the streets of this town
               G#m               B
and they'll be carving you up alright
                        G#m   B
They say you gotta stay hungry
              G#m                    E
hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight
                   C#m    E
I'm dying for some action
                           C#m                        B
I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
                G#m    B
I need a love reaction
                 G#m             F#
come on now baby gimme just one look


[Chorus]
(F#)                                                         E
You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
               C#m  E
This gun's for hire
                   C#m             F#
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

You can't start a fire
                                          E
worrying about your little world falling apart
               C#m  E
This gun's for hire
                   C#m             B   E
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
                   C#m             B   E
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
                   C#m             B   E
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
                   C#m             B   E
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
