[G#]
[B] [G#]
[B] I get up in the evening, then I ain't got nothing to say.
I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the [E] same way.
I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm [C#m] just tired and bored with [B] myself.
Hey [G#m] there baby, [B] I [G#m] could use just a little [F#] help.
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without [E] a spark.
This burns [C#m] for hire, [E] man we put [C#m] the fancy in [B] the dark.
Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round my place.
I check my look in the mirror, wanna change my clothes, my hair, [E] my place.
And I ain't [C#m] getting nowhere, [E] I'm [C#m] just living in a dump [B] like this.
There's something [G#m] happening somewhere, [B] [G#m] baby I just know [F#] this.
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without [E] a spark.
This [C#m] burns for hire, [E] even if [C#m] we're just passing [B] in the dark.
[G#m] You sit around [B] getting older, [E] there's a joke, [F#] it's a wild [G#m] song.
I shake this world [B] off my shoulders, [E] poor little baby [F#] that laughs so mean.
[B] Stay in the streets of this town, you'll end up being carved and you'll work alright.
You say you gotta [G#m] stay hungry, [B] hey baby I'm just a fast star [E] in your face.
I'm calling for [C#m] some action, [E] I'm sitting [C#m] around here trying to write [B] this book.
I need a [G#m] love reaction, [B] come on [G#m] baby give me just [F#] one look.
You can't start a fire, sitting around crying over a [E] broken heart.
This [C#m] burns for [E] hire, even if [C#m] we're just passing [F#] in the dark.
You can't start a fire, when it's not your little world [E] going on fire.
This burns [C#m] for hire, [E] even if [C#m] we're just passing in [B] the dark.
Even if we're just passing in the dark.
Even if we're just passing in the dark.
Even if we're just passing in the dark.
[G#]
[B] Hey baby!
