This is the Sara Bareilles cover version of I'm On Fire originally by Bruce Springstein. Sara performs this live on piano on a video you can find on Youtube. This is my first tab so it may be a bit sloppy, but it would get you by. I think her version is gorgeous, hope you enjoy!

    C
a six inch valley through the middle

      G           Am

C
At night I wake up with the sheets

soaking wet and a freight train runnin

                     F
through middle of my head

                        Am
Only you can cool my desires

OooOOOooo oooOOOoo I'm on fire

  F      G             C
Oooh ooh Ooooh I'm on fire

(in the video that last note isn't "C" it's a note deeper than the guitar will allow if you play in standard tuning, but "C" resolves the melody so it sounds fine)
