[Fm] [C]
[Fm] The ponies run, the girls [C] are young, [Fm] the odds are there to beat.
You win a while, and then [Em] it's done, [Ab] your [Fm] little winning streak.
And summon [Bbm] now to [C] deal with [Fm] your invincible [D] defeat.
[Fm] You live [Bbm] your life as if [C] it's real,
[Db] a [Fm] thousand kisses deep.
I'm turning tricks, I'm getting [C] fixed, I'm back [Fm] on boogie street.
You lose your grip, and then [C] you slip into [Db] the masterpiece.
And maybe I had [C] miles to drive and [Fm] promises to [D] keep.
You ditch [Db] it all to stay [C] alive,
[Fm] a [Eb] thousand kisses [Fm] deep.
And
[C] [Fm]
[Bbm] [C] [Fm]
[Db]
sometimes when the night [C] is slow,
[Fm] the wretched and the [D] meek.
We [Db] gather up our [C] hearts and go
[Fm] a [Ab] thousand kisses [Fm] deep.
Confined [Db] to six, we pressed [C] against the [Fm] limits of the sea.
I saw [Db] there were no [C] oceans left for [Fm] [Db] scavengers like me.
I made it to the forward [C] deck,
[Fm] [Bbm] I blessed our [Bb] ram not flee.
And then [Db] consented [Bbm] to [C] be wrecked
[Db] a [Bb] thousand kisses [Fm] deep.
I'm turning [Db] tricks, I'm getting [C] fixed, [Fm] I'm back on boogie street.
I guess they [Db] won't exchange [C] the gifts that you [Db] were meant to keep.
And quiet is the thought [C] of you,
[Fm] the file on you [Bb] complete.
Except [Bbm] what we forgot [C] to do,
[Db] a [Eb] thousand kisses [Fm] deep.
And [C] [Fm]
[Bbm] [C]
[Db] sometimes [Bbm] when the night [C] is slow,
[Fm] [Bbm] the wretched and the [Bb] meek.

And summer now to [C] deal with [Fm] your invincible [Bb] defeat.
[D] You live [Db] your [Bbm] life as if [C] it's real,
[Fm] a [Ab] thousand kisses [Fm] deep.
