G                Em      G
 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
[Chorus]
    D             
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
[Verse]
G                     Em      G
Message keeps getting clearer

                   Em                G
Radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place

                       Em
I check my look in the mirror

  G               Em                   C
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face

                     Am      C
Man, I ain't getting nowhere

         Am                    G
I'm just living in a dump like this

                            Em        G
There's something happening somewhere

             Em              D
Baby, I just know that there is
[Chorus]
    D             
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
[Bridge]
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, the laugh's on me
[Verse]
G                      Em       G
Stay on the streets of this town

               Em               G
and they'll be carving you up alright

                        Em     G
They say you gotta stay hungry

              Em                    C
Hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight

                   Am    C
I'm dying for some action

                           Am                        G
I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book

                Em     G
I need a love reaction

                  Em             D
Come on now baby, gimme just one look
[Chorus]
    D                                                      C
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

    D                                                            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
[Outro]
                   Am             G   C
Even if we're just dancing in the dark  x2
