Biography:
Cowboy Mouth is a rock band based in New Orleans, Louisiana, taking their name from the title of a Sam Shepard play which got the term from a Bob Dylan song. The nucleus of the band, Fred Leblanc (Drums, Vocals) and John Thomas Griffith (Guitar, Vocals), formed in the early 1990s, and they climbed the ladder from an opening act living in a van to a powerhouse live act that has been called "a religious experience" by more than one music journalist.

MAIN RIFF:

B|-----------------------------2-----2---2-2------------------|
G|-----------------------------2-----2---2-2------------------|

A|-------------2--------2-------------------------------------|
E|---0-0------------------------------------------------------|
It's four A.M., I'm drunk and alone
Tryin' to call you on a public phone
I wanted passion, I wanted desire
A
My heart is a flame that pains me if I do not
CHORUS:
A E
Light it on Fire
A E
If I do not light it on fire
A E
If I do not light it on fire
A (n.C.)
If I do not light it on fire
VERSE 2 (Main riff repeated through first 3 lines, last line A as above):
I'm the perfect picture of a perfect fool
You're out doin' what I wanted ya' to
I'm in heartbreak hotel and there's a desk clerk for hire
My heart is a flame that pains me if I do not
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
C C E A E
How can I tell you
C C E A E
Just how it feels
C C E A E
How can you make love stay and
A
How do you know if what's stayin' is real
MAIN RIFF + guitar solo
VERSE 3 (same as VERSES 1 and 2):
I was the one full of whiskey and talk
I was the one with the skip in my walk
You say the truth hurts, well so does a liar
My heart's a flame that pains.....
CHORUS
(repeated with A E chords into MAIN RIFF close)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
(note: the easiest way to play the riff is to start with
your first finger on the D string, 2nd fret. After the first
two E notes and the note on the D string, move it to the A
string, where it remains, until you hit the A chords. After the
A chords, place your first three fingers on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th
frets of the D string, and pull off one after each note...)
