Chords for Off to the Races Lyrics

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ My old man is a [C] bad man, but I can't [E] deny the way he holds my hand
And he grabs me, [E] he has me by my _ heart
_ _ _ [Em] He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
He doesn't mind I have a LA crass way about me
He loves me with every beat of his cocaine [D] heart
_ Swimmin' pool, glamourin', darlin'
Wipe her kinney off with my red nail polish
Watch me in the swimmin' pool, bright blue
Ripples, you sit and sippin' on your black _ _ [D] pistachio, yeah
[Em] Light up my life, _ my lungs
Be a good, great, be the one I want
Light up my life, fire up my lungs
Gimme them gold [E] coins, gimme them gold coins
And I'm off [Em] to the races, _ chasin'
Supper party chasin'
He's teasing me all over town
[G] Puss in [C] Boots, I'm lost in space
In time I cannot write, very well
And then I won't get out
_ _ [D] _ _
Lazy, _ _ lady
[Bm] I need you to come here and save me
I'm your [C] little Scarlet, Scarlet
Singin' in the garden
[Am] Kiss me on my open mouth
[Bm] Run [Em] for you _
_ _ _ _ _ _ My old man is a tough man but
He got a soul as sweet as blood red jam
And he shows me, he knows me
[C] Every inch of my tar black [Em] soul
_ He doesn't mind I have a flat, broke down [C] life
In fact he says he thinks it's why he might
Like about _ me, admires me
The way I roll, like a rolling stone
[Em] Like to watch me in the classroom, bathroom
Checked on my mom, oh, slipping on my red dress
Putting on my makeup, _ classroom perfume
Cognac, _ life's fumes
Says it [Bb] feels like heaven to him
Light up this life, fire up this lung
Keep me forever, tell me you'll be
Light up your [B] life, fire up your lung
[E] Tell me [Em] you won't make it, make them poor
And I'm off [Em] to the races, _ chases
Suffer bloody chases, chasing me all over town
_ [G] But you [C] know I'm wasted, wasted
Come again I'll write good about it and I won't get out
_ [D] Cause I'm _ crazy, _ [D] baby
[Bm] I need you to come here and save me
I'm your [C] little Scarlet, Scarlet
Singin' in the garden
Kiss me on my [Am] open mouth
[Bm] Now I'm off [Em] to the races, laces
Leather on my waist is tight and I am falling down
_ I can [C] see your face is shameless
To Brianna's basement
Love you but I'm going down
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ Baby, [Bm] I'm sorry they're misbehaving
_ I'm your [C] little Scarlet
_ Queen of Pony Island
Breaking all over _ [B] town
_ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ My old man is a thief
And I'm gonna stay and pray with [Em] him till the _ [Bm] end
_ _ [Em] But I trust in the decision of the Lord
To watch over _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] Rachel say
_ [Em] That I'd die without him
Who else is [Am] gonna _ _ _ _ play?
_ I need you, I breathe [C] you
I _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] was alone [Am] without you
_ _ _ With your gold chain on
Sick of hanging [Am] from your lips
I said, honey, you now look [Em] so beautiful
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ I'm [Em] off to the races, chases
Ready set the gate is down
And now we're going in
[G] _ [C] Las Vegas, Vegas
_ Casino or races
Honey, it is time [Em] to stay
Oh, [D] you're so _ crazy
_ _ Baby, [Bm] I love you forever
Now maybe you [C] are my one true _ love
You are my one true [E] love
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
