Fire Inside The Man

Biography:

From Woodridge, Australia to worldwide success, Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones were responsible for some of the most widely-known pop songs of the late '90s and early '00s. Appropriately enough, given their Anne Rice-inspired name, Savage Garden veered between lush ballads (Truly Madly Deeply, I Knew I Loved You) and up-tempo dance numbers (I Want You, The Animal Song) with a deftness that put many of their contemporaries in the shade.

In July of 1996, under Roadshow Music, the duo released their debut single I Want You.

FIRE INSIDE THE MAN
(Savage Garden)

Notes:
Here it is! This song is very easy, and a blast to play. I am sure that most of
it is right. The solos are definitely right, and all the chords except the
bridge I am positive of.
I'm aware the solos can be a bit confusing-- I usually use asteriks (*), but
this time it made more sense to use numbers. But Solo 3 also is indicated in
some places by an asterik. (!) Solos 1 and 2 are the same, except there is an
overlying C chord in Solo 2. I will transcribe out all the notes on all solos
but Solo 2, which is the same all Solo 1. (Whew!)

intro: Solo 1 (x2), Solo 2 (x2)

chorus:
C G F
woman i need your guiding hand
C G F
show me the way to the promised land
C
the fever that burns in my heart
G F C G F
you're the fire inside the man yes you are

C C G
whenever i feel like just giving up
G C C F
whenever my dreams just fade away
F C
i just return to my heart
C G G F F G
cause i know that i'll find you there yes i will
G C
and when the world is closing in
C
you come save me once again

(chorus)

C C G
well there's never been a boy who's luckier
G C C F
there's never been more grateful man
F C
and although i don't show it and I
C G G C C G
i know what i've got with you yes i do

(chorus)

C
and if there's a storm that's close at hand
C
you'll push it away you'll understand
C G
and i'll do anything just to please you
C G C G F
i'll do anything just to know that I can hold on to you

C G F and/or [*Solo 3] (x4, of either)

C C G
whenever I feel like just giving up
G Am Am F
whenever my dreams just fade away now
