[Intro]
A#  Gm  A#  Gm  2x


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


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


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


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


[Interlude]
A#  Gm  A#  Gm  2x


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


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


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

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