Capo 3
[Verse]
[C]I get up in the evening and I [G]don't have nothing to [C]say
[C]I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same w[F]way
[F]I ain't nothing but tired, I'm just tired and bored of my[C]myself
[C]Hey baby I could use just a little help
[Chorus]
[G]You can't start a fire, you can't start a [C]fire with[G]without a [F]spark
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark [C]
[Instrumental]
(repeat Intro)
[Verse]
[C]Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm [G]moving round the [C]place
[C]I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my [F]face
[F]I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living in a dump like [C]this
[C]There's something happening somewhere oh and I just don't know where it is
[Chorus]
[G]You can't start a fire, you can't start a [C]fire with[G]without a [F]spark
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark [C]
[Post-chorus]
[Am]You sit around getting [C]older, [F]there's a joke here [G]somewhere and it's on me
[Am]Take the words off my [C]shoulders, [F]come on baby the [G]laugh's on me
[Verse]
[C]Stay on the streets in this town and they'll be [G]carving you up all [C]right
[C]They say you gotta stay hungry, hey well I'm just about starving to[F]tonight
[F]I'm dying for some action, I'm tired of sitting 'round just trying to write this [C]book
[C]I need a love reaction, come on baby gimme just one look
[Chorus]
[G]You can't start a fire, you can't start a [C]fire with[G]without a [F]spark
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
[G]You can't start a fire sitting round and [C]crying about a [G]broken [F]heart
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark [C]
[G]Even if we're just dancing in the dark (x4)
