B B6 B B6 B I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say B6 B B6 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 Abm B Abm F# Hey there baby I could use just a little help F# B F# B 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) Abm B You sit around getting older E F# Abm 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# B F# B 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 F# B F# B F# E You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart C#m E C#m B B6 This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark B B6 B B6 Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Hey baby (+ sax outro)
