Verse: x2
  I   could  see    a  strange   fire   burning   up  in   you
  I   could    feel  sparks   fly    dangerous    and      true

Bridge:
I ain't  afraid to take the things I want and I don't believe the world is gonna change for me
So I take the love I need

Chorus:
We were riding high, like flames against the sky. Innocent and wild, we were playing with fire
Too hot to touch, you can't call it love. But it's close enough to be playing with fire

And I'm tired of wasting all of my precious time. I love the way I feel when you're in my mind.
It ain't no crime.

G|----------7---7~--------7-------7------7~---------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

The song fades out over this solo but if you are going to end it, finish on that last D 
the G string (7~) and then hit a D power chord to do the live ending.

ENJOY LITA!
