Capo 3rd
G Em G Em
G Em G Em G
I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say
Em G Em C
I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same way
Am C Am G
I ain't nothing but tired Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Em G Em D
Hey there baby I could use just a little help
D Dsus C
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
Am C Am G Em G Em
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
G Em G Em G
Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round the place
Em G Em C
I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Am C Am G
Man I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living in a dump like this
Em G Em D
There's something happening somewhere hey I just know where it is
D Dsus C
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
Am C Am G Em G
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
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 the world off my shoulders
C D Dsus
Come on baby the laugh's on me
G Em G Em G
Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up all night
Em G Em C
They say you gotta stay hungry - hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
Am C Am G
I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
Em G Em D
I need a love reaction. Hey, baby just give me one more look
D Dsus C
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
Am C Am G Em
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
G Em G Em
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
G Em G
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
