[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say
G C
I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same way
Am C Am G
I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Em G Em D
Hey there baby I could use just a little help
[Chorus]
D C
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
Am C Am G
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
[Verse 2]
G
Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving 'round my place
G C
I check my look in the mirror, wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
C Am C Am G
Man I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living in a dump like this
Em G Em D
There's something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is
[Chorus]
D C
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
Am C Am G
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
[Bridge]
Em G C D Em
You sit around getting older, there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
G C D
I'll shake the world off my shoulders, come on baby the laugh's on me
[Verse 3]
G
Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up all right
G C
They say you gotta stay hungry, hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
C Am C Am G
I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
Em G Em D
I need a love reaction, come on now baby gimme just one look
[Chorus]
D C
You can't start a fire sitting round crying over a broken heart
Am C Am
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
D C
You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
Am C Am G
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
G
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
G
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
G
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
G
Hey baby!

If you're going to play this in the key Bruce plays it in on the record, the capo oughta be on the fourth. (Of course, if you're playing it for your own purposes, it doesn't matter where the capo is.)
