INTRO

F#F# E MajorE

F#F#          E MajorE
Fighting fire with fire


F#F#    E MajorE
Watch out  you might get what you're after
F#F#     E MajorE
Cool babies strange but not a stranger
F#F#   E MajorE      F#F#
I'm an ord-in-ar-y guy
AbAb        E MajorE
Burning down the house

F#F#     E MajorE
Hold tight  wait till the party's over
F#F#     E MajorE
Hold tight  we're in for nasty weather
F#F#    E MajorE        F#F#
There has got to be a way
AbAb        E MajorE
Burning down the house


F#F#                E MajorE
Here's your ticket pack your bag: time for jumpin' overboard
F#F#           E MajorE
The transportation is here
F#F#              E MajorE
Close enough but not too far, Maybe you know where you are
F#F#         E MajorE
Fightin' fire with fire


F#F#   E MajorE
All wet  hey you might need a raincoat
F#F#     E MajorE
Shakedown  dreams walking in broad daylight
F#F#       E MajorE       F#F#
Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees
AbAb        E MajorE
Burning down the house

F#F#              E MajorE
It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself
F#F#          E MajorE
Gonna come in first place
F#F#             E MajorE
People on their way to work baby what did you except
F#F#        E MajorE
Gonna burst into flame


F#F#          E MajorE
Fighting fire with fire
F#F#          E MajorE
Fighting fire with fire
AbAb       E MajorE
Burning down the house


F#F#    E MajorE
My house out of the ordinary
F#F#     E MajorE
That's right Don't want to hurt nobody
F#F#          E MajorE       F#F#
Some things sure can sweep me off my feet
AbAb       E MajorE
Burning down the house


F#F#    E MajorE
Watch out  you might get what you're after
F#F#     E MajorE
Cool babies strange but not a stranger
F#F#   E MajorE      F#F#
I'm an ord-in-ar-y guy
AbAb        E MajorE
Burning down the house

F#F#              E MajorE
No visible means of support and you have not seen nothin' yet
F#F#          E MajorE
Everything's stuck together
F#F#              E MajorE
I don't know what you expect staring into your TV set
F#F#         E MajorE  F#F#
Fightin' fire with fire
AbAb       E MajorE   F#F#
