[G#] [B]
I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say.
I come home in the morning.
I go to bed feeling [E] the same way.
I [C#m] ain't nothing but tired.
[E] [C#m] Man, I'm just tired and [B] bored with myself.
[G#m] Hey there, baby.
[B] I could use just a [F#] little help.
You can't start a fire [E] without a spark.
[C#m] This gun's for hire.
[E] You [C#m] better put your dancing [B] in the dark.
Messages keep getting clearer.
Radio's on and I'm moving round the place.
I take my look in the mirror.
I wanna change my clothes, my [E] hair, my face, and [C#m] I ain't getting nowhere.
[E] [C#m] I'm just living in a [B] dump like this.
There's something [G#m] happening somewhere.
[B] [G#m] Baby, I just [F#] know that this, you can't start a fire.
You can't start a fire [E] without a spark.
This [C#m] gun's for hire.
You better [E] put your dancing [B] in the dark.
[G#m]
You sit [B] around getting older.
[E] There's a [F#] joke, it's wild, [G#m] it's on me.
I shake this [B] world off my shoulders.
[E] Oh, [F#] baby, the laughs on [B] me.
Stay on the streets in this town.
And they'll be driving you up all right.
You say you gotta stay hungry.
Hey, baby, I'm just a bastard.
[E] I'm trying to do [C#m] some action.
[E] I'm sitting [C#m] around here trying to write [B] this book.
I need a [G#m] little 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] gun's for hire.
You better put your dancing in [F#] the dark.
You can't start a fire.
Worrying about your little world [E] falling apart.
This [C#m] gun's for hire.
[E] You better [C#m] put your dancing [B] in the dark.
You better put your dancing in the dark.
You better put your dancing in the dark.
You better put your dancing in the dark.
Hey, baby!
