Im On Fire by John Mayer - Guitar Chords
<< Back to John Mayer Song List
Version 1
I'm On Fire - John Mayer
off "Battle Studies"
Tabbed by: Kevin Heiland (Kevy Absolution)
Email:
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.

[Verse 3]
C#m
Sometimes it feels like someone took a knife
baby edgy and dull, and cut a
A
six-inch valley through the middle of my skull.
[Verse 4]
E
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet,
And a freight train running through the
A
middle of my head.
C#m
It can cool my desire.
[Outro]
A B E
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire.
A B E
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire.
A B
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire.
Mmmmhmmm, yeah.
