Originally performed by Bruce Springsteen, "I'm On Fire" is reproduced by John Mayer
for his new album. While similar to the original in chord structure, some of the 
riffs have changed in Mayer's interpretation. Throughout the song, chords are
arpeggiated, so I'll introduce the arpeggio charts then show chords with lyrics.

(Intro Riff)

                   C#mSometimes (x13321@4)it feels like someone took a knife

baby edgy and dull, and cut a
                            A (x02220@1)six-inch valley through the middle of my skull.

   EAt (022100@1)night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet,

And a freight train running through the 
             Amiddle (x02220@1)of my head.
               C#mIt (x13321@4)can cool my desire.

A (x02220@1)     B (x2444x@1)        E (022100@1)Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire. 
A (x02220@1)     B (x2444x@1)        E (022100@1)Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire. 
A (x02220@1)     B (x2444x@1)         
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire. 

Mmmmhmmm, yeah.
