Payin' for It Now chords
Start Jamming...
[Em] Met her in a nightclub, out this highway.
I could tell by looking at her, she had come to play.
Bought a pre-gin and tonic, and we told each other lies.
Then I headed for the [Em] motel [F#m] with my little [Em] prize.
And I'm [A] paying for it now, [B]
[A] paying for it now.
She's gone and stole my wallet, [G] and I'm paying for it [Em] now.
She took off and took all my ducts.
Then I ran into [E] Maggie,
[Em] old friend of mine.
Said, hey, let's do some reminiscing, go and get some wine.
She could drink just like a sailor, got as drunk as I could be.
By the time the night was over, yeah, she'll get one for me.
[C#] And [A] I'm paying for it now, paying for it now.
She took me off the market, [Am] and I'm [G] paying for it [Em] now.
She was soft and friendly, and willing as can be.
She had a pretty little tattoo right above her knee.
[D] [E] I got her down to [Em] business, then I fell asleep.
[A] She said I made her promises, promises that she's expecting me to keep.
And I'm paying for it now, paying for it now.
The girl was talking marriage, [Am] and I'm [G] paying for it [Em] now.
Well, I should have got suspicious when she started acting nice.
Should have read the signals, should have thought about it [G] twice.
[Em] For eleven days running, she was cold every night.
And when she laid it on me, you know I didn't even fight.
And [A] I'm paying for it now, oh Lord, I'm paying for it now.
Here comes her mother with the suitcase, and I'm [G] paying for [Em] it now.
Here
[E] [Em]
comes her mother.
Here comes her mother.
[A] Here comes [Em]
