  			Intro 

From the (Gm) thoughts that I've been (Dm) thinkin' 
I should (Eb) think of an ali(Dm)bi 
Thought I'm (Gm) innocent, I've (Dm) still got a guilty (Eb) mind 
There's no (Gm) place that I can turn to 
When (Em7/b5) she turns out the lights 
To (Eb) keep her from seein (Cm) you 
burnin' in my (Gm) eyes 

(F) It's (Bb) like try(F7)in' to hide a fire in the dark (F) (Bb) 
(F7) Carrin' around this torch in my heart 
I (Bbsus) cannot con(Bb)ceal it I (Bbsus) cannot (Bb) put it (F7) out 
It's (Bb) like (F7) tryin' to hide a fire in the dark (F) (Bb) 
(F7) Tryin' to fight a flame I never meant to start 
It's (Bbsus) out of con(Bb)trol and (Bbsus) nothin' can help me (Bb) now (F7) 

At (Gm) first it was no (Dm) problem 
Flickering (Eb) thoughts of you now and (Dm) then 
Nothin' (Gm) intimate that (Dm) she could call a (Eb) sin 
Then you (Gm) sparked my imagi(Dm)nation 
Temp(Em7/b5)tation bout to drive me wild 
These (Eb) flares of desire (Cm) you can see for (Gm) miles 

(F) It's (Bb) like try(F7)in' to hide a fire in the dark (F) (Bb) 
(F7) Carrin' around this torch in my heart 
I (Bbsus) cannot con(Bb)ceal it I (Bbsus) cannot (Bb) put it (F7) out 
It's (Bb) like (F7) tryin' to hide a fire in the dark (F) (Bb) 
(F7) Tryin' to fight a flame I never meant to start 
It's (Bbsus) out of con(Bb)trol and (Bbsus) nothin' can help me (Bb) now (F7)
