        It's four A.M., 	I'm    drunk and alone

        Tryin' to call you on a  public   phone

          I  wanted passion, I   wanted   desire

  A

  My heart is a flame that pains me if I do not

  

  CHORUS:

  A	    E

  Light it on Fire

  	       A 	E

  If I do not light it on fire

  	       A	E

  If I do not light it on fire

  If I do not light it on fire

  

  VERSE 2 (Main riff repeated through first 3 lines, last line A as above):

  I'm the perfect picture of a perfect fool

  You're out doin' what I wanted ya' to

  I'm in heartbreak hotel and there's a desk clerk for hire

  My heart is a flame that pains me if I do not

  

  CHORUS

  

  BRIDGE:

  C C E   A	  E	

  	How can I tell you

  C C E   A	    E

  	Just how it feels

  C C E   A	    E

  	How can you make love stay and

  A

  	How do you know if what's stayin' is real

  

  MAIN RIFF + guitar solo

  

  VERSE 3 (same as VERSES 1 and 2):

  I was the one full of whiskey and talk

  I was the one with the skip in my walk

  You say the truth hurts, well so does a liar

  My heart's a flame that pains.....

  

  CHORUS

  (repeated with A E chords into MAIN RIFF close)

  

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------

  (note: the easiest way to play the riff is to start with

  your first finger on the D string, 2nd fret.  After the first

  two E notes and the note on the D string, move it to the A

  string, where it remains, until you hit the A chords.  After the

  A chords, place your first three fingers on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th

  frets of the D string, and pull off one after each note...)
