Base para Solo/Introdução: (B) (G#m)
B G#m B G#m B
I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say
G#m B G#m E
I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same way
C#m E C#m B
I ain't nothing but tired Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
G#m B G#m F#
Hey there baby I could use just a little help
(Chorus)
F# E
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
C#m E C#m B
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round the place
I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere baby I just know there is
(Repeat chorus)
G#m B
You sit around getting older
E F# G#m
There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
B
I'll shake the world off my shoulders
E F#
Come on baby the laugh's on me
Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up all right
They say you gotta stay hungry - hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to
Write this book
I need a love reaction. Come on now baby gimme just one look
F# E
You can't start a fire sitting round crying over a broken heart
C#m E C#m F#
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
E
You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
C#m E C#m B
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
[Trecho 2x]
B
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Hey baby (+ sax outro)
