 DA
 don't stand so close to me
 DA
 don't be another tragedy
 BmG
I've burned everybody who had a hand to lend
 AD
a man burning at both ends
 DA
 no one put me in this hell
 DA
 I lit a fire underneath myself
 BmG
now I'm blazing the same old trail back to you again
 AD
a man burning at both ends

 G
 a dangerous thing to know about
 Bm
 no painless way to put me out
 Em
 you either make a bed that's cold
 A
 or you're walking barefoot over coals

 DA
 I regret the things I've done
 DA
 bitter words and fiery tongues
 BmG
and letters burned to smoke and then turned to wind
 AD
a man burning at both ends

 G
 a dangerous thing to know about
 Bm
 no painless way to put me out
 Em
 you either make a bed that's cold
 A
 or you're walking barefoot over coals
 G
 we ran barefoot through the reeds
 Bm
 wetted down and with the need
 Em
 the tide though high and getting higher
 A
 could not put out the man on fire

 DA
 look look look look look down your street for me
 DA
 look look look look look up your the window please
 BmG
you'll see a light where before no light had been
 AD
a man burning at both ends
