Paper In Fire

         A              E         
Well the dream burned up like 
         B5
paper in fire

Chorus:
              D                    
     Paper in fire, stinkin' up the
 B5
 ashtray
              A                    
     Paper in fire, smokin' up the 
E
alley ways
              A                
     Who's to say the way a man 
        E
should spend his days
                     A      E     
     Do you let them smolder like 
         B5
paper in fire?

He wanted live with no involvement
So he chased the wind that's all his
 silly life required
And the days of vanity went on 
forever
And he saw his days burn up like 
paper in fire

Chorus

Interlude

D    B5    D    E    D    B5  

  E    A  D  B5

There is a good life right across 
this green field
And each generation stares at it 
from afar
But we keep no check on our 
appetites
So the green fields turn to brown 
like paper in fire

Chorus

Paper in Fire - John Cougar 
Mellencamp (1987)

B7(no 3rd)   E/B                 B5
She had a dream and boy it was a 
good one

B7(no 3rd)              E/B         
      B5
So she chased after her dream with 
much desire

B7(no 3rd)           E/B            
   B5
But when she got too close to her 
expectations
         A              E         
Well the dream burned up like 
         B5
paper in fire

Chorus:
              D                    
     Paper in fire, stinkin' up the
 B5
 ashtray
              A                    
     Paper in fire, smokin' up the 
E
alley ways
              A                
     Who's to say the way a man 
        E
should spend his days
                     A      E     
     Do you let them smolder like 
         B5
paper in fire?

He wanted live with no involvement
So he chased the wind that's all his
 silly life required
And the days of vanity went on 
forever
And he saw his days burn up like 
paper in fire
