Intro: Em C D Am B7 Em Daddy I'm not going to say I'm sorry. C There ain't nothing you can do to change my mind. D I'm not here to know the things I can not do. Am B7 We've seen the outcome of the boys who didn't fly. Em That road outside that'll you've been taking home forever, C that'll be the same road I take when I depart. D Those charcoal veins that hold this chosen land together, Am B7 may twist and turn but somewhere deep there is a heart Em Playing with Fire. C You know you're going to hurt somebody tonight. D When you're out on a wire, Am B7 you know you're playing with fire. Em perhaps this calling is the channel of invention. C I will not blush if others see it as a crime. D However dangerous the road, however distant. Am B7 These things won't compromise the will of the design. Em Ten thousand demons hammer down with every foot step. C Ten thousand angles rush the wind against my back. D This church of mine may not be recognized by stepol, Am B7 that doesn't mean that I will walk without a god. Em rolling river of truth, can you spare me a sip? Am The holy fountain of youth, has been reduced to a drip. C I've got this burning belief, G in salvation in love, this notion may be naive, C G but when push comes to shove, D I will till this ground. C G C You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight. G D Out on a wire. C G I might not get there. C This little town, this little house, G Em Em they seem to be leaning in the wrong direction. D Em I'm not afraid of you no more. Em Ohhhhhh C Ohhhhhh D Ohhhh Am Ohhhhh B7 Ohhhhh (2x) Em Playing with Fire. C You know you're going to hurt somebody tonight. D When you're out on a wire, Am B7 you know you're playing with fire. Em Ohhhhhh C Ohhhhhh D Ohhhh Am Ohhhhh B7 Ohhhhh
