E                A      E
Blame it on your summer dress
E               A    E
Blame it on the city air
E           A     E       B   E
Blame it on everything or anything
      A        E
See I wouldn't care

E            A       E
And silently knowing things
     E            A     E
That you wouldn't speak of
E             A            E     B
And I'll just pretend that I can tell
E            A        E
What you are thinking of

     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     E                     A
Just smile like you always do
    E                 Dbm
And I'll stay put for you

If your hearts all booked up
And dressed up in beads and jewels
Your digging up the right dirt
But workin' with all the wrong tools

A lefty in politics
A righty in special tricks
Early to bed early to rise
How will you get your kicks?

     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     E                     A
Just smile like you always do
    E                 Dbm
And I'll stay put for you

E                   
Burn it down to the center of the earth
        A                                    
But the center of the earth can't read your mind
E                  
Burn it down to the center of the earth
        A
But the center of the earth can't read your mind

E                   
Burn it down to the center of the earth
        A               
But the center of the earth can't read your mind
E                  
Burn it down to the center of the earth
        A
But the center of the earth can't read your mind
A
Read your mind

And dancing on sidewalks
And trying to loosen up
I'm not sure you like me yet
But I don't plan on giving up

And scream from a mountaintop
Or sing like a songbird
I wanna be near you in love
But love is a dangerous word

     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you


     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     Dbm      B
Your fuse, my fuse
E                    A
Cities they burn for you
     E                     A
Just smile like you always do
    E                 Dbm
And I'll stay put for you
