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#dim
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                 G                      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, just 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#dim      D
Blow 'em a kiss as I wave goodbye

[Chorus]
             C     F                 G
Yeah, Let it burn, burn, Mama 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#dim
Yeah, even if I wanted to stay, they'd probably run me out of here anyway
         D
Let it burn
         C
Let it burn
