[Intro]
E  D  2x


[Verse]
E                                 D
Long distance runner, what you standin there for?
E                         D
get up get out, get out of the door
E                         D
your playin cold music on the barroom floor
E                          D
your drowned in your laughter and dead to the core
E                          D
theres a dragon with matches thats loose in the town
E                           D
takes a whole pail of water, just to cool him down


[Chorus]
E                 D
Fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain


[Verse]
E                        D
Almost ablaze, still you dont feel the heat
E                             D
it takes all you got, just to stay on the beat
E                        D
you say its a living, we all gotta eat
E                                 D
but your in here alone, theres no one to compete
E                       D
if mercys in business i wish for you
E                              D
more than just ashes when your dreams come true


[Chorus]
E                 D
Fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain


[Interlude]
E  D  4x


[Verse]
E                              D
Long distance runner, what you holdin out for
E                           D
caught in slow motion, in a dash for the door
E                                  D
the flame from your stage, has now spread to the floor
E                             D
you gave all you had, why you want to give more
E                           D
the more that you give, the more it will take
E                                  D
to the thin line beyond which, you really can't fake


[Chorus]
E                 D
Fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
E                 D
fire, fire on the mountain
