[E] [B]
[Em] [B]
I'm in the corner on the boardwalk.
[C] [B]
There's a passenger [Bm] moving.
I'm on [Em] the curb and I can't stand up.
[Am] [Em] Fire away.
[B] Houses on fire.
Chilling [Em] all alone.
Amber, fire [A] away.
[B] Houses on fire.
Chilling all alone.
[Em] She broke a bar on Morgan's Hill.
And I'm stepping [B] on the devil's tail.
Across the straps of a full moon's head.
Through the [Em] bars of a Cuban jail.
Cutting fingers on a buffalo knife.
[B] Drinking from a cocktail glass.
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife.
And I'm [E] from up [A] in here.
[Em] Fire away.
[B] Houses on fire.
[Em] Chilling all [A] alone.
Amber, [E] [Em] fire [B] away.
Houses on fire.
[Em] Chilling all alone.
[B] [G] [B] [E]
[G] [B]
[Em] [Am] Amber, [E] fire away.
[B] Houses on fire.
[Em] Chilling all [Am] alone.
Amber, [E] fire [D#] away.
Houses on fire.
[Em] Chilling all alone.
Cause she's so hung up.
She's a [B] baller.
She's a little rat.
She took the car from the Fudge's.
Oh, I hope that was [Em] me for talking sad.
Hit the million in a truck.
[Bm]
[B] I'm a pistol put the gun on the shoot.
I'm in the [Em] corner.
