 G
You'd better grease up
 C7
I'm coming back
       G                   C7
You're going to catch fire, pyromaniac
       G
You'd better shape up
 C7
You'd better get set
     G
I'm gonna burn up
C7
In the smoke of a jet

Chorus:
    G                D
   Sparks will fly when I finally get myself
    G              D
   Back on you baby
    G                D
   Sparks will fly when I get myself
    G              D
   Back to you baby
 C         G
   You're going to find out
 C             G
   Going to scream and shout
 C                  G
   We're going to pierce through this drought
                                   G  C  G
   Sparks will fly, sparks will fly

You'd better stand back
The flames are high
Better get help
Can't stop the fire
Bell's going to ring
Hear the alarms
Better tell the fire chief
To quit playing cards

Chorus:
   Sparks will fly when I finally get myself
   Back on you baby
   Sparks will fly when I get myself
   Back on you baby
   I'm gonna step on the gas
   I want to get there really fast
   I want to fuck your sweet ass
   Sparks will fly
   Sparks will cry
   Sparks will fly

   D
   I had a good sniff around
   Along old hunting grounds
   But I have never found
   A woman so hot

Chorus:
   Sparks will fly when I finally get myself
   Back on you baby
   Sparks will fly when I finally get myself
   Back to you baby
   My fingers are crossed
   The time that we lost
   I'm in total chaos
   Sparks will fly
   Sparks will fly
   Sparks will fly
