[Intro]
F  Dm  F  Dm  2x


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


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


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


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


[Interlude]
F  Dm  F  Dm  2x


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


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


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

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