The Fire Inside chords
Bob Seger
Capo I
G C 2x
G
There's a hard moon rising on the streets tonight,
C G C
there's a reckless feeling in your heart as you head out tonight
G
Through the concrete canyons to the midtown lights,
C G C
where the latest neon promises are burning bright
G
Past the open windows on the darkened streets,
C G C
where unseen angry voices flash and children cry
G
Past the phony posers with their worn out lines,
C
tired new money dressed to the nines
G
The low life dealers with their bad designs,
C
and the dilettantes with their open minds
D
You're out on the town, safe in the crowd,
Em
ready to go for the ride
C
Searching the eyes, looking for clues,
G D C G C
there's nowhere you can hide,
G C
the fire inside
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bob_seger/fire_inside_crd_ver_3.html ]
G
Well you've been the clubs and the discotheques,
C G C
where the deal one another from the bottom of the deck of promises
G
Where the cautious loners and emotional wrecks,
C G C
do an acting stretch as a way to hide the obvious
G
Then the lights go down and they dance real close,
C G C
and for one brief instant they pretend they're safe and warm
G
Then the beat gets louder and the mood is gone,
C
the darkness scatters as the lights flash on
G
They hold one another just a little too long,
C
then they move apart and then move on
D
On to the street, on to the next,
Em
safe in the knowledge that they tried
C
Faking the smile, hiding the pain,
G D C G C
never satisfied,
G C
the fire inside
G
Fire inside
Solo G C x D Em C G D C G C
G
Now the hour is late and he thinks you're asleep,
C
you listen to him dress and you listen to him leave,
G C
like you knew he would
G
You hear his car pull away in the street,
C
then you move to the door and you lock it,
G C
when he's gone for good
G
Then you walk to the window and stare at the moon,
C G C
riding high and lonesome through a starlit sky
G
Then it comes to you how it all slips away,
C
youth and beauty are gone one day
G
No matter what you dream or feel or say,
C
it ends in dust and disarray
D
Like wind on the plains, sand through the glass,
Em
waves rolling in with the tide
C
Dreams die hard and we watch them erode,
G D C G C
but we cannot be denied,
G G C
the fire inside
G G C
The fire inside 2x
G
Burning you up 2x
G G C
The fire inside
Solo G C x D Em C G D C G C
