         Dm
Take the heat off me, please take the heat off me
         Am
Yes, I'm burning
       A#
If you really lie and cheat
                                        Dm
I don't want to meet your kind of terms no more
              Dm
So, take the heat off me, please take
the heat off me
          Am
Yes, I'm burning
        A#
Don't believe you're trying to make it
                                      Dm
And I just can't keep on taking it no more

A#             C
Don't mean to say you double-crossed me
A#          C
But somehow I think that you've lost me
A#         C
Maybe you weren't even trying to see
A#          C                  F
Where I was or where I should be
F      A#maj7
And if you're just faking
     Gm                     D#
We'd better start breaking away tonight
                           Dm
So take this fire from my heart tonight

So take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
Don't believe you're trying to make it
And I just can't keep on taking it no more
Take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
If you really lie and cheat
I don't want to meet your kind of terms no more

Don't mean to say you double-crossed me
But somehow I think that you've lost me
Maybe you weren't even trying to see
Where I was or where I should be
And if you're just faking
We'd better start breaking away tonight
So take this fire from my heart tonight

             Dm
So, take the heat off me,
please take the heat off me
Take the heat off me,
please take the heat off me
Take the heat off me
         Am
Yes, I'm burning
       A#
If you really lie and cheat
                                         Dm
I don't want to meet your kind of terms no more - x4
