I'm On Fire - John Mayer
off "Battle Studies"
Tabbed by: Kevin Heiland (Kevy Absolution)

Tuning: EADGBE
Originally performed by Bruce Springsteen, "I'm On Fire" is reproduced by John Mayer
for his new album. While similar to the original in chord structure, some of the
riffs have changed in Mayer's interpretation. Throughout the song, chords are
arpeggiated, so I'll introduce the arpeggio charts then show chords with lyrics.

EHey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go and leavAe you all alone now?
I got a bad dC#mesire;
AOh, oh, Boh, I'm on Efire.
ETell me pretty baby is he good to you?
Can he do to Ayou the things that I do now?
I can take you C#mhigher;
AOh, oh, Boh, I'm on Efire.
(Intro Riff)
Sometimes it feels C#mlike someone took a knife
baby edgy and dull, and cut a
six-inch valley through the Amiddle of my skull.
At Enight I wake up with the sheets soaking wet,
And a freight train running through the
middle of my Ahead.
It can cool my C#mdesire.
AOh, oh, Boh, I'm on Efire.
AOh, oh, Boh, I'm on Efire.
AOh, oh, Boh, I'm on fire.
Mmmmhmmm, yeah.
(Intro Riff)
