[C]
[Cm] Well the times are getting hard for you, little girl.
[Gm] I'm a humming and a strumming [Bb] all over God's world.
[C] You can't remember when you got your last meal.
[Gm] And you don't know just [D] how a woman feels.
[Bb] You didn't know what rock and roll was
[B] until you [Eb] met my drummer on the Great Tube Bus.
[Bb] I got there in the nick of time
[Eb] before he got his hands across your steel line.
[C]
Now it's the middle of the night on the open road.
[G] The heat is warm while the [Dm] grass is hot, so cold.
[C] You're looking tight, you're looking kind of beat.
[G] The rhythm of the street show [Dm] knocks you off your feet.
[Bb] You didn't know how rock and roll looked
[Eb] until you caught your sister with the guys from the groove.
[Bb] Halfway home in the parking lot,
[Eb] she was giving what she got [C] and
I'm one spit and [F] twice shy, baby.
[C] I'm one spit [F] and twice shy, [C] baby.
I'm one spit and [F] twice shy, baby.
[G] [Gm]
[E] [C] Man's gonna die in his sleep.
[G] There's blood on my amp and [D] my left palm's beat.
[C] Can't keep you home, you're messing around.
[G] My best friend told me [D] you're the best nick in town.
[Bb] You didn't know that rock and roll burned
[Eb] until you bought a candle and you lived and you learned.
[Bb] You got the rhythm, you got the speed.

[C] I'm one spit and [F] twice shy, baby.
