 It's only  two o'clock and the temperature's  beginning to soar
 
 And all around  the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead
 It's never  been this hot and I've never  been so bored
 And breathing  is just no fun  anymore
 Then I saw  you like a summer dream
 And you're the answer to every  prayer that I ever said
 I saw  you like a summer dream
 And you're the answer to every  prayer that I ever said
 (Same As Verse One)
 You can feel the pulse of the pavement racing like a runaway horse
 The subways are sizzling and the skin of the streets is gleaming with sweat
 I've seen you sitting on the steps outside
 And you were looking so restless and reckless and lost
 I think it's time for you to come inside
 I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
 I think it's time for you to come inside
 I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
 Pre Chorus:
 Come on,  come on and there'll be no  turning back
 You were only  killing time and it'll kill  you right back
 Come on,  come on, it's time to burn  up the fuse
 You got nothing  to do and even less  to lose
 
 You  got nothing to do and even less to lose
 So wander  down to the ancient  hallway
 Taking  the stairs only one  at a time
 Follow  the sound of my heartbeat  now
 I'm in the room  at the top
 You're at the end  of the line
 So open  the door and lay down  on the bed
 The sun  is just a ball of desire
 And I wanna take you out  of the frying  pan  (and into the fire)
 Out  of the frying  pan  (and into the fire)
 Out  of the frying  pan  and into the fire
 And  I wanna take you out  of the frying  pan  (and into the fire)
 Out  of the frying  pan  (and into the fire)
 Out  of the frying  pan  and into the fire
 And  into the fire,  fire,  fire,  and  into the fire, fire, fire
 And  into the fire
 It's
 Only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to soar
 And all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead
 It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
 And breathing is just no fun anymore
 Then I saw you like a summer dream
 And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
 I saw you like a summer dream
 And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
 Pre Chorus
 And  into the,  and into the,  and into the
 And  into the fire,  fire,  fire,  and into the...
   Fire!

It's o[A]nly two o'clock and the te[D/A]mperature's beginning to soar[A]
                   [Amaj7]       [A6]            [A]
And all [Esus4]around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead
It's n[A]ever been this hot and I've n[D/A]ever been so bored
And br[A]eathing is just no [E/A]fun any[F#m]more   [A/F#]
Then I s[D]aw you like a summer d[Esus4]ream
And you're the answer to e[D]very prayer that I ever s[A]aid
I [F#m]saw you like a summer d[Esus4]ream
And you're the answer to ev[D]ery prayer that I ever s[A]aid

(Same As Verse One)

You can feel the pulse of the pavement racing like a runaway horse
The subways are sizzling and the skin of the streets is gleaming with sweat
I've seen you sitting on the steps outside
And you were looking so restless and reckless and lost
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget

Pre Chorus:

Come on[F#m], come on and there'll be [Esus4]no turning back
You were o[D]nly killing time and it'll k[A]ill you right b[E]ack
Come on[F#m], come on, it's time to [Esus4]burn up the fuse
You got n[D]othing to do and even l[A]ess to l[E]ose
         [D]                      [A]       [E]     [D/E]
Y[E]ou got nothing to do and even less to lose

So w[A]ander down to the a[F#m7]ncient hallway
T[D]aking the stairs only [Esus4]one at a time[E]
F[A]ollow the sound of my h[C#m]eartbeat now
I'm in the r[D]oom at the top
You're at the [Esus4]end of the line [E]
So o[D]pen the door and lay d[E/D]own on the bed
The [A/C#]sun is just a ball of des[D]ire

And I wanna take you o[A]ut of the f[Asus4]rying pa[E]n (and into the fire)
O[A]ut of the f[Asus4]rying pa[E]n (and into the fire)
O[A]ut of the f[Asus4]rying pa[E]n and into the fi[D]re
A[E]nd I wanna take you o[A]ut of the f[Asus4]rying pa[E]n (and into the fire)
O[A]ut of the f[Asus4]rying pa[E]n (and into the fire)
O[A]ut of the f[Asus4]rying pa[E]n and into the fi[D]re
A[Esus4]nd into the fi[A]re, fi[F#m]re, fi[D]re, an[Esus4]d into the fire, fire, fire

A[Esus4]nd into the fi[A]re

[A] [D] [A] [A] [C#] [F#m] [E]

[D]  [Esus4]     I[E]t's

Only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to soar
And all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead
It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
And breathing is just no fun anymore
Then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said

Pre Chorus

A[A/C#]nd into the,[Bm] and into the,[Esus4] and into the
A[E]nd into the f[A]ire, f[F#m]ire, f[D]ire[Esus4], and into the...

 [Esus4]           Fi[A]re!
