| Don't stand too | close to me |
| C | Gsus4 | |
| Don't be another | tradgedy |
| Am | |
| I've | burned everybody |
| G | F | |
| Who | had a hand to le | nd |
| G | |
| A | man burning at both ends |
| No one put me in this hell |
| I lit the fire underneath myself |
| Now Im blazing the same old |
| Trail back to you again |
| A man burning at both ends |
| F | |
| A dangerous thing to know about |
| Am | |
| No painless way to put me |
| Dm | |
| You either make a bed thats cold |
| G7 | |
| Or you're | walking barefoot over coals |
| I regret the things Ive done |
| Bitter words and fiery tounges |
| And letters burned to smoke |
| And then turned to wind |
| A man burning at both ends |
| A dangerous thing to know about |
| No painless way to put me |
| You either make a bed thats cold |
| or you're walking barefoot over coals |
| 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 |
| Look, look, look, look ,look down your street for me |
| Look up in your window please |
| You'll see a light where before no light had been |
| A man burning at both ends |
