[B] [Abm] [B] [Db]
[B] [Abm] [B] [Db]
[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 [Dbm] just tired and bored [B] with myself.
Hey [Abm] baby, [B] I [Abm] could use just a little [Gb] help.
You can't [Gb] start a fire, you can't start a fire without [E] a spark.
This stunts for hire, even if [Dbm] you're dancing [B] in the dark.
[Abm] [B]
Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on [Abm] and I'm moving round [B] my place.
I take my look in the mirror, I wanna change my clothes, my hair, [E] my face.
And I ain't [Dbm] getting nowhere, [E] I'm [Dbm] just living in a dark [B] like this.
There's something [Abm] happening somewhere, [B] [Abm] baby I just know [Gb] this.
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without [E] a spark.
This stunts for hire, even if [Dbm] we're dancing [B] in the dark.
[Abm] [B] [Db]
[B] [Abm] [B]
[Abm] You sit around [B] getting older, [E] there's a door [Gb] kiss of wine that's [Abm] on me.
I shake this world [B] off my shoulders, [E] come on [Gb] baby then laugh at me.
[B] Stay in the [Abm] streets in this town, [B] then they'll [Abm] be carving you up [B] alright.
You say you gotta [Abm] stay hungry, [B] hey baby I'm just a fast [E] starter, you play.
I'm dying for [Dbm] some action, [E] I'm sick of sitting [Dbm] around here trying to write [B] this book.
I need a [Abm] love reaction, [B] come on [Abm] baby give me just [Gb] one look.
You can't start a fire, sitting around crying over a [E] broken heart.
This [E] stunts for hire, even if [Dbm] we're just dancing [Gb] in the dark.
You can't start a fire, worrying about your little world [E] falling apart.
This stunts for hire, even [Dbm] if we're just dancing [B] in the dark.
[Abm] [B] Even if we're just dancing in the dark.
[Abm] [B] Even if we're just dancing in the dark.
[Abm] [B] Even if we're just dancing in the dark.
Hey baby!
