TRIAL BY FIRE
Gene Simmons, Bruce Kulick

[Intro: Drums only]
[Rhy. Fig 1]
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Rhy. Fig 2]

[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Rhy. Fig 4]
Only got one life to live, I'm gonna live it, oh yeah 
Some people say I go to far 
I don't care, reachin' for the stars 

[Rhy. Fig 5]
Gonna climb that ladder to the top 
Nothin' can stop me now 
Well, look out world 
'Cause here I come 
Oh yeah, oh yeah 

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Rhy. Fig 2]
Life's a trial by fire 
I'm gonna live my life, oh yeah 
It's a trial by fire 
So just roll the dice, oh yeah 
And I'll take what I get 

[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Rhy. Fig 4]
Can't listen to nobody else, you just got to believe in yourself 
They'll criticize you and lay down the law 
They'll say, just who do you think you are 

[Rhy. Fig 5]
Gonna live it till the rivers run dry 
What've I got to lose 
They just try and stop me, go ahead and try, oh yeah, oh yeah 

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Rhy. Fig 2]
Life's a trial by fire 
So I'm gonna live it up, oh yeah, oh yeah 
Trial by fire 
So just roll the dice, oh yeah, oh yeah 
Trial by, trial by fire 
Never gonna give it up, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah 

[Rhy. Fig 6]
People say I'm crazy 
They don't understand 
They haven't got a clue, oh no 
They say, "Tell me everything" 
They say, "Let me hear you sing" 
I say, "Tell you what I'm gonna do", oh yeah 

[Rhy. Fig 1] (2x)
'Cause I'm gonna live my life the way I want to 
Live it, live it the way I want to 

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Rhy. Fig 2 and Riff 1]
Trial by fire 
I'm gonna live my life, oh yeah, oh yeah
