[Verse]
G                                 Em
  She's just a girl, and she's on fire
C                       D
  Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
G                                      Em
  She's living in a world, and it's on fire
C               G         C                      D
  Filled with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G          Em                              Bm
Ooh, oh-oh-ooh, she got both feet on the ground
                      D
And she's burning it down
           G          Em                             Bm
Oh-oh-ooh, ooh, oh-oh-ooh, she got her head in the clouds
                       D
And she's not backing down
 
 
[Chorus]
                 G
This girl is on fire
Em                 Bm
  This girl is on fire

  This girl is on fire
 
 
[Verse]
G                                Em
  Looks like a girl, but she's a flame
C
  So bright, she can burn your eyes
D
  Better look the other way
G                                         Em
  You can try but you'll never forget her name
C          G
  She's on top of the world
C                D
  Hottest of the hottest girls say
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G          Em                            Bm
Ooh, oh-oh-ooh, we got our feet on the ground
                      D
And we're burning it down
           G          Em                         Bm
Oh-oh-ooh, ooh, oh-oh-ooh, got our head in the clouds
                      D
And we're not coming down

This girl is on fire

  This girl is on fire

[Bridge]
C                               D
  Everybody stands, as she goes by
                                            C
Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes
                                       D
Watch her when she's lighting up the night
        G                  Em
Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl
            Bm
And it's a lonely world
                    C           G         C
But she gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby

This girl is on fire

Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
            C                D
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
 
            G          Em
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
            Bm               D

Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
            C                D
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
 
            G          Em
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
