[Verse 1]
CmI thought that fire with fire would burn the problem quicker
CmBut all this good advice, his hair just grows back thicker
CmAnd if I take my own advice the worst just gets here quicker
                           CmN.C.
So what's it all supposed to do
N.C.                                 Cm  
The fire eats fire and the fire's in you
[Bridge]
And I have nothing here for yAbou
All this water's gone and Bbyou, you've done nothing here for Gme
Except I know that I can't bCmreathe
And we were talkin all weekAbend
I guess I'm mad because I Ebam
And I've tried this all befFmore
Just in my heGad not in conCmtrol
[Refrain]
Which is wAbhy the music died
And we're lFmiving out our lives in this Bbhope one day our livG/Bes will straighten oCmut
And we will Ableave town
And we'll get Fmdown to business now will someone teBbll me wG/Bho I Cmam
[Verse 2]
CmIt's always been a little hard, I wish that you could meet her
CmThis woman that you have become, you know that she's a keeper
CmExcept you keep her under wraps in case someone should break her
CmIt's dirty in this world, it's true
N.C.                        Cm  
I wish I could and she does too
[Bridge]
And I have nothing here for yAbou
All this water's gone and Bbyou, you've done nothing here for Gme
Except I know that I can't bCmreathe
And we were talkin all weekAbend
I guess I'm mad because I Ebam
And I've tried this all befFmore

And we will Ableave town
And we'll get Fmdown to business now will someone teBbll me wG/Bho I Cmam
[Verse 3]
CmI believe the good wore out and pain does have its purpose
CmIt seems a little silly now, that you would just desert us
CmI know that everything you do, things happen for a reason
CmBut give something good, a sign, I need something to believe in
[Bridge]
And I have nothing here for yAbou
All this water's gone and Bbyou, you've done nothing here for Gme

[Verse 1]

I thought that fire with fire would burn the problem quicker

But all this good advice, his hair just grows back thicker

And if I take my own advice the worst just gets here quicker

N.C.

So what's it all supposed to do

N.C.

The fire eats fire and the fire's in you

[Bridge]

And I have nothing here for you

Bb G

All this water's gone and you, you've done nothing here for me

Except I know that I can't breathe

And we were talkin all weekend

I guess I'm mad because I am

And I've tried this all before

G Cm

Just in my head not in control

[Refrain]

Which is why the music died

Fm Bb G/B Cm

And we're living out our lives in this hope one day our lives will straighten out

And we will leave town

Fm Bb G/B Cm

And we'll get down to business now will someone tell me who I am

[Verse 2]

It's always been a little hard, I wish that you could meet her

This woman that you have become, you know that she's a keeper

Except you keep her under wraps in case someone should break her

It's dirty in this world, it's true

N.C.

I wish I could and she does too

[Bridge]

And I have nothing here for you

Bb G

All this water's gone and you, you've done nothing here for me

Except I know that I can't breathe
