[Verse 1]
[D][Baug][B][E][A]
[D]I was
burned once, 1944
But I won't let [G]that happen
to me no [Abdim]more
Cause I'm a burnt [D]child, oh [B]yes I [E]am
An[A]d I'm afraid of f[D]ire[G][D][A]
[D]I took the girl in, treated her like a queen
But I don't know [G]why she
treats me so [Abdim]mean
Cause I'm a burnt [D]child, [B]oh yes I [E]am
An[A]d I'm afraid of [D]fire[G][D]
If [G]you didn't want me baby
Why did you [D]dog my [A]heart around?[D]
[G]Oh, you just told me, [Abdim]baby,
I would have [A]walked straight on out,
out of your town
Well, you can't plant [D]cotton,
expect to gather corn
You can't take [G]right and
make it wrong
[Abdim]Of course I'm a burnt child,[D]
[B]oh [A]yes I [E]am
[Abdim]An d I'm [A]afraid of fire, a[D]lright[G][D]

You didn't want me, baby
Why [D]did you turn my [A]heart [D]around?
[G]You just tol[Abdim]d me,
I would have walked [A]straight on out of your town
You can't plant cot[D]ton,
speck to gather corn
You can't [G]take right and
make it [Abdim]wrong
Cause I'm a burnt [D]child, oh [B]yes I [E]am
An[A]d I'm f[D]ree to find
[A]Well I k[D]now I get old,

Because I'm a burnt [D]child,
