[Verse 1]
C Gsus4
Don't stand too close to me
C Gsus4
Don't be another tragedy
Am
I've burned everybody
G F
Who had a hand to lend
G
A man burning at both ends
G Gsus4
No one put me in this hell
C Gsus4
I lit the fire underneath myself
Am
Now I'm blazing the same old
G F
Trail back to you again
G G
A man burning at both ends
[Chorus]
F
A dangerous thing to know about
Am
No painless way to put me out
Dm
You either make a bed that's cold
G7
Or you're walkin' barefoot over coals
[Verse 2]
C Gsus4
I regret the things I've done
C Gsus4
Bitter words and fiery tounges
Am G
And letters burned to smoke
F
And then turned to wind
G G
A man burning at both ends
[Solo]
G G Am F
[Chorus]
F
A dangerous thing to know about
Am
No painless way to put me
Dm
You either make a bed that's cold
G7
Or you're walking barefoot over coals
[Bridge]
F
We ran barefoot the reeds
Am
Wetted down and with need
Dm
The tide, though high and getting higher
G7
Could not put out the man on fire
[Outro]
C G C
Look, look, look, look ,look down your street for me
C G C
Look, look, look, look ,look up in your window please
Am G F
You'll see a light where before no light had been
G C C C
A man burning at both ends
Am F G
Am F G
