1. I get up in the evening
Em G
and I ain't got nothing to say
Em
I come home in the morning
G Em C
I go to bed feeling the same way
Am C
I ain't nothing but tired
Am G
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Em G Em D
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
D
R: You can't start a fire
C
You can't start a fire without a spark
Am C
This gun's for hire
Am G
even if we're just dancing in the dark
2. Message keeps getting clearer
radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place
I check my look in the mirror
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
baby I just know that there is
R: You can't start a fire...
Em G
*: You sit around getting older
C D Em
there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
G
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
C D
come on baby this laugh's on me
3. Stay on the streets of this town
and they'll be carving you up alright
They say you gotta stay hungry
hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
come on now baby gimme just one look
D C
R: You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
Am C
This gun's for hire
Am D
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
C
You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
Am C
This gun's for hire
Am G C
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark (3x)
Hey baby
