[Verse 1]
[D]You [G]give [A]me that little child smi[D]le,
[A]say in just a little while
[Dm]I take[D] anoth[G]er[A] breath and think,[D]
may[A]be [Em]I'll have one [G]more drink[A]
I walk across the floor and [D]glance out,
I [A]see you've taken one
more [D]dance [Dm]out
I [A]sit down in a velvet [Dm]chair,
[D]I look aro[Em]und and you[G]'re not the[A]re
[Em]And all my friends just say
it's [A]time I [D]burned,
[Em]I've had to play with fire, I must[A] get burned
[D]I s[Em]tart complaining about the things[A] you do
[D]The[Em]y laugh and tell me
now that [A]that's just [D]you
I [A]drive across a moonlit town
[Dm]I'm not [D]even[A] thinking where I'm bound
[D]I, I p[G]ark[A] beside your
house and [Dm]sit down
[D]See [Em]you're not at home[G] in spli[A]t time
I wake up in the noonday [D]sun
I've got to [A]get a few things done [D]now
[A]It's best that I leave you [D]alone now
[Em]Then I reach to [G]grab my [A]phone
[Em]And all my friends just say
it's [A]time I [D]learned
[Em]I've got to play with fire,
I [A]must get [D]burned
[Em]I start complaining about
the [D]things that you do
[Em]Ooh, they laugh and tell me now
that [A]that's [D]just you, that's just [Bm]you
And it [D]ain't no sin, that's just [Bm]you
And [D]you've always been quite the [Em]charm
and very [G]hard to [A]tame
You're the [Em]belle of Baltimore
and [G]I'm off love's [A]flame
You give me that little
child [Dm]smile now
Because [A]you know it drives me [Dm]wild, I
[D]I l[Dm]ook i[D]nto your[A]
turquoise eye[D]s, I
Any[Em]thing you [G]want, I [A]try
[Em]And all my friends just say it's t[A]ime I [D]learned
[Em]I got to play with fire, I m[A]ust get burned
[D]I s[Em]tart complaining
about the [D]things you do
[Em]They laugh and tell me,
[A]that's just [D]you, [Bm]that's just you
And it [D]ain't no sin, that's just [Bm]you
And [D]you've always been quite the [Em]charm
and a [G]very [Em]heart to [A]tame
You're the [Em]belle of Baltimore
[G]an d I'm a moth loves [A]flame
You're the [Em]belle of Baltimore
[G]and I'm a moth loves [A]flame[D]
You
