Rod Stewart - The balltrap chords
Start Jamming...
My brother said he saw you in a damn tambourine
[G] With a flash on your head and a black
[D] Come on sister, I ain't quite as dumb [A] as I seems
[D] I'd rather see you dead with a rope around your neck
[G] Or see you paralyzed in both of your thighs
[D] Come on honey, [A] you got me crawling down [D] on my knees
If the sun's all over, I'll come and go
[G] But this time tomorrow you'll be screaming on the phone
[D] Come back baby, unless you're head naked [A] tonight
[D] Well I can't say yes and I can't say no
[G] My heart wants to love you but my soul says go
[D] Come on sugar, [A] why don't you let your man [D] up
You got [A] me in a bomb trap
[G] Lord, I'm eaten out [Dm] of your hands
[D] You got [A] me in a bomb trap
[G] Hung up on a one [Dm] night stand
[D] You got [A] me in a bomb [G] trap
Spun out on a midnight [Dm] tram
[D] First time I had your up on Oak Park Lane
You [G] didn't know my name even when I came
[D] As I recall, you let me walk home [A] in the rain
You [D] see I'm cute, but tell the truth
It's [G] my body you bought with the red-eyed tooth
[D] Come on honey, [A] it's called a whole [D] thing-o
You got [A] me in a bomb trap
[G] Lord, I'm eaten out [Dm] of your hands
You [D] got [A] me in a bomb [G] trap
Hung up on a one [D] night stand
You got [A] me in a bomb [G] trap
Spun out on a [Dm] midnight tram
