Subject: TAB: I'm on Fire (Springsteen)
Here's a neat way to play this song:
Bruce Springsteen
I'm on Fire (from the album "Born in the USA")
-----------
CAPO on the 2nd FRET!
INTRO: (repeat once) E E E E C#m7 C#m7 C#m7
Hey little girl is your daddy home
E
Did he go away and leave you all alone
A
I got a bad desire Ohhhhhhhhh, I'm on fire
C#m7 A B E
Tell me now baby is he good to you
E
Can he do to you the things that I do
A
I can take you higher Ohhhhhhhhhh, I'm on fire
C#m7 A B E (Repeat intro)
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby edgy and dull and cut a
A
six-inch valley through the middle of my soul
E C#m7
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet and a
E
Freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire Ohhhhhhhhh, I'm on fire (Repeat twice)
A C#m7 A B E
