D               A
don't stand so close to me

D                  A
don't be another tragedy

     Bm                                  G
I've burned everybody who had a hand to lend

  A                   D
a man burning at both ends

D               A
no one put me in this hell

D                  A
I lit a fire underneath myself

        Bm                                     G
now I'm blazing the same old trail back to you again

  A                   D
a man burning at both ends

G
a dangerous thing to know about

Bm
no painless way to put me out

Em
you either make a bed that's cold

A
or you're walking barefoot over coals

D              A
I regret the things I've done

D                 A
bitter words and fiery tongues

     Bm                                        G
and letters burned to smoke and then turned to wind

  A                   D
a man burning at both ends

G
a dangerous thing to know about

Bm
no painless way to put me out

Em
you either make a bed that's cold

A
or you're walking barefoot over coals

G
we ran barefoot through the reeds

Bm
wetted down and with the need

Em
the tide though high and getting higher

A
could not put out the man on fire

D                    A
look look look look look down your street for me

D                    A
look look look look look up your the window please

       Bm                                    G
you'll see a light where before no light had been

  A                   D
a man burning at both ends
