Lyrics

Gimme Fuel, 
Gimme Fire, 
Gimme that which I desire Uh!
 
Turn on...I see red 
Adrenaline crash & crash my head 
Nitro Junkie, Paint me dead 
And I see red 

One hundred plus through Black and White 
War Horse, Warhead 
Fuck 'Em Man, white knuckles tight 
Through Black & White 

Oooh, On I Burn, 
Fuel is pumping engines, 
Burning hard, loose & clean 

And I burn, 
Churning my direction, 
Quench my thirst with Gasoline 

So Gimme Fuel, 
Gimme Fire, 
Gimme that which I desire, 

Turn on beyond the bone 
Swallow future, spit out home 
Burn your face upon the crome 
Yeah yeah eh yeah! 

Take the corner, join the crash, 
Headlights, Headlines 
Another Junkie lives too fast 
Yeah lives way too fast, fast, fast, fast, fast, fast oh oh

Oooh, On I Burn 
Fuel is pumping engines 
Burning hard, loose & clean 

And On I burn 
Churning my direction, 
Quench my thirst with Gasoline 

Gimme Fuel 
Gimme Fire 
Gimme that which I desire 

Uh! Yeah-Heah
  
[solo]

Oooh, On I Burn 
Churning my direction 
Quench my thirst with Gasoline 

Gimme Fuel 
Gimme Fire 
Gimme that which I desire 

On I Burn! 

This song was quite hard to play at first but it isn't really that hard once you get the hang of it. Listen to Avril's version over and over and play along with it until you really get it down. I've laid out where all the figures have to be played so it's really just playing along to it now. AVRIL RULES!! ROCK ON!!
