             Bm                  D  E
Don't put me off, 'cause I'm on fire
       Bm                D   A
And I can't quench my desire
                   Bm           D            E
Don't you know that I'm burning up for your love?
Bm                         D        A
You're not convinced that that is enough
         Bm             D    E
I put myself in this position
        Bm             D     A
And I deserve the imposition
                    Bm        D  E
But you don't even know I'm alive
          Bm                   D          A
And this pounding in my heart just won't die
            Bm
I'm burning up

Chorus:
            G           D            E
I'm burning up, burning up for your love
            G           D            E
I'm burning up, burning up for your love
            G           D            E
I'm burning up, burning up for your love
           F#
For your love

You're always closing your door
Well, that only makes me want you more
And day and night, I cry for your love
You're not convinced that that is enough
To justify my wanting you
Now tell me what you want me to do
I'm not blind, and I know
That you want to want me, but you can't let go
C'mon, let go

Chorus

Bm                   D
Do you wanna see me down on my knees?
Bm                   D
Or bending over backwards, now,
would you be pleased?
Bm                  D
Unlike the others, I'd do anything
G                   F#
I'm not the same, I have no shame
        Bm D E Bm D A
I'm on fire

           Bm
C'mon, let go

Bm                   D
Do you wanna see me down on my knees?
Bm                   D
Or bending over backwards, now,
would you be pleased?
Bm                   D
Unlike the others, I'd do anything
G                   F#
I'm not the same, I have no shame
        G  D E
I'm on fire
