INTRO: E5 
VERSE: 
E5 
She came down from up near Katherine 
     A5              E5 
Moved in across the ridge 
        E5                            B5 
She was everything a young man could desire 
E5 
Out there in the ranges  
   A5               E5 
In secret we would meet 
  E5             B5              E5 
My heart ran as wild as desert fire 


               E5 
Like a burning sun beating down 
              B5               E5 
She sparked a flame on virgin ground 
                  A5            E5 
And if by chance a fire should start 
             B5                E5      E5 
No one could tame the burning heart  
 
VERSE: 
         E5 
Well her father owned the station 
        A5                E5 
Where I rode the boundry fences 
       E5                                  B5 
And he made it clear for all the hands to see 
       E5 
That a man could easily wind up 
       A5                E5 
On the wrong end of his shot gun 
        E5               B5         E5 
And his little girl was only seventeen 


               E5 
Like a burning sun beating down 
              B5               E5 
She sparked a flame on virgin ground 
                  A5            E5 
And if by chance a fire should start 
             B5                E5 
No one could tame the burning heart  
  
BREAK:

         F5 
She came on me like the summer 
        Bb5                 F5 
wrapped around me like the wind 
    F5                          C5 
And my defenses buckled in the heat 
F5 
Out there on the station 
    Bb5            F5 
The sun set amber glow 
   F5              C5           F5 
As our lips met a fire was released 


               F5 
Like a burning sun beating down 
              C5               F5 
She sparked a flame on virgin ground 
                  Bb5           F5 
And if by chance a fire should start 
             C5                F5 
No one could tame the burning heart  
 

                    F5 
Just like a burning sun that was beating down 
              C5               F5 
She sparked a flame on virgin ground 
                  Bb5           F5 
And if by chance a fire should start 
             C5                F5 
No one could tame the burning heart 
C5                F5         F5    C5    F5 
  Ooh my burning heart
