VERSE 
A                                  G  A 
Girl who ya kiddin, your man's a dog, 

A                                                G    A 
You can collar him and train him but it won't be long, 

A                                         G   A 
If you take your love away he's a wolf again, 

A 
Runnin with the pack loyal to his sin, 


A                           G   A 
Baby who ya foolin I'm kerosine, 

A                                  G    A 
Add a little fire and your warm with me, 

A                                         G     A  
But get a little careless and I'll burn ya down, 

A 
Turn your house to rubble smoking on the ground, 


Chorus 
A        C    
WHOOOOAAAAA, 

F                        D  
Light it up and I can't stop it, 

A        C 
WHOOOOAAAAA, 

F                     D 
Bottle rocket, bottle rocket, 

C                                      E 
In every gentle man there's a little bit of rebel, 

A                                        F 
Walkin like a saint but'cha dancing with the devil, 
C         E 
WHOOOOAAAAA, 
A                          F                     E 
Bottle rocket I can't stop it anymore. 


VERSE 
A                                   G     A  
It's a fine fine line that I walk for sure, 

A                                           G    A 
Between the straight and narrow and the open door, 

A                                    G      A  
I wanna find that light that you found in me, 

A                                                                  
Before the night's so dark that I'm too blind to see 



Chorus 



BRIDGE 
A 
Well maybe I'm in over my head, 

A 
But I'll keep throwing punches and I'll sleep when I'm dead, 



Chorus
