(Verse) G Well, if I had a nickel for every line this town put on my face G D If I had a dime for every time I said I was fixing to leave this place C D It would help me buy the gas I'm about to pour on every thing I've seen C F G I can't be sentimental when it don't mean nothing to me (Chorus) C F G Let it burn, burn, just let it burn G C D I'm sick of hangin' 'round here waiting for the tides to turn G G/B C C# It don't matter if its far or near, just as long as I get out of here D Let it burn, let it burn (Verse) G I work too damn hard to wind up in this shotgun shack G D To get a little behind and have a man come and take it back C D They're all breathing down my neck waiting for me to fall C F G Well if it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all (Chorus) C F G Let it burn, burn, momma let it burn G C D I can't wait to see 'em all when they ain't got nowhere to turn G G/B I watch the flames light up the sky C C# D Blow 'em a kiss as I wave good-bye. Yeah (Chorus) C F G Let it burn, burn, just let it burn G C D Well, I'm sick of hangin' 'round here waiting for the tides to turn G G/B C C# Yeah, even if I wanted to stay, they'd probably run me out of here anyway D Let it burn
