Pete Rasche posted this song already, but I found many mistakes in key
parts of the song, so I decided to correct them and add a few
things(including the solo).
This main riff is played by one guitar during the verse. The other guitar
plays E and A.

Verse 1:
[E]It's four A.M., I'm [A]drunk and alone
[E]Tryin' to call you [A]on a public phone
[E]I wanted passion, [A]I wanted desire
[B]My heart is a flame that pains me if I do not
CHORUS:
[A]Light it on [E]Fire
If I do not lig[A]ht it on [E]fire
If I do not lig[A]ht it on [E]fire
A (n.c.)
If I do not light it on fire
VERSE 2:
I'm the perfect picture of a perfect fool
You're out doin' what I wanted ya' to
I'm in heartbreak hotel and there's a desk clerk for hire
My heart is a flame that pains me if I do not
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
[D] [A] [E] [A]How can I [E]tell you
[D] [A] [E] [A]Just how it [E]feels
[D] [A] [E] [A]How can you [E]make love stay and
[A] How do you [B]know if what's stayin' is real
Solo(guitar II plays main riff)

VERSE 3
I was the one full of whiskey and talk
I was the one with the skip in my walk
You say the truth hurts, well so does a liar
My heart's a flame that pains.....
CHORUS
(repeated with A E chords into MAIN RIFF close)
That's about it. The solo might take a little practice to get right. Laterz!
