Bob Seger - The Fire Inside Chords

_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] There's a hard moon rising on the streets tonight.
[Db] There's a reckless feeling in your [Ab] heart as you head out tonight.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] The concrete canyons to the midtown [Db] lights where the latest neon prompts are [Ab] burning bright.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] I see open windows on the darker streets where [Db] unseen angry voices [Ab] flash and children cry.
_ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Passing by on weed poses with a worn out [Db] line.
Tired moon money dressed to [Ab] the nines.
Lowlife dealings with the bad [Db] designs.
In the dilettantes with their open [Eb] minds.
Out on the town, safe in the [Fm] crowd, ready to go for the ride.
[Db] Searching the eyes, looking for [Ab] clues there's no way [Eb] you can [Ab] hide.
_ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Fire inside.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Deep into the clubs and the [Db] discotheques where they deal one another from the bottom of a
[Ab] deck of promises.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Where the cautious loners and emotional [Db] wrecks do an acting stretch as a way to hide [Ab] the obvious.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] And the lights go down and they dance real [Db] close.
For one brief instant they pretend [Ab] they're safe and warm.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Then the beat gets louder and the mood is [Db] gone.
Darkness scatters and the lights flash [Ab] on.
They hold one another just a little too [Db] long.
And they move apart and then move [Eb] on.
On to the street, on to the [Fm] next.
Safe in the knowledge that they tried.
[Db] Faking a smile, hiding the [Ab] pain, never [Eb] satisfied.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Fire inside.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Fire inside.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Now the hour is late and he thinks he's lost [Db] it.
You listen to him dress and you [Ab] listen to him leave like you knew he would. _ _ _
_ You hear his car pull away in the [Db] street.
Then you move to the door and you lock it [Ab] when he's gone for good.
_ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Then you walk to the window and stare at the [Db] moon.
Riding her on some [Ab] through a starlit sky.
_ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] And it comes to you how it all slips [Db] away.
Youth and beauty are [Ab] gone one day.
No matter what you dream or feel or [Db] say.
It ends in dust and [Eb] disarray.
The light will end on the plains.
Sand to the [Fm] glass.
Waves will wing in with the tide.
[Db] Dreams die hard and we watch them [Ab] erode.
But we cannot be [Eb] denied.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Fire inside.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Fire inside.
_ _ [Db] _ _
Oh, [Ab] fire inside.
_ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] Burning you up.
_ [Db] Burning you up.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
