[D]
[A] [D] [A]
I was never one [D] for compromise, [E] I couldn't fit at [A] school.
Gans about the [D] seventh grade, [E] I played them all the [A] fool.
Yeah, [E] I couldn't find shoes my size, had to walk ten [D] miles.
[A] Blisters on the [D] backs of my [E] soles, an illegal [A] smile.
We're burning down Las Vegas town, [A] had to sleep by [D] noon.
[A] Drank my money on [D] a red roulette, [E] that's a ride you can't [A] refuse.
[E] Five hours down with a sunrise crown, [A] lightning in your [D] shoes.
[A] It's one foot in [D] the ether [E] with the LA County [A] blues.
[D] [A]
[D] [F#m]
[A]
Yeah, they got me on [D] accessory, [E] thirty days [A] in jail.
One headlight in a Louisville night, [E] without a [A] chance of bail.
[E] But I'll be home by durbin time, [A] so please save [D] me a seat.
[A] Mint tulips [D] on the outfield grass, [E] the old south [A] head so sweet.
[E] We're burning down Las Vegas [A] town, had to sleep [D] by noon.
[A] Drank my [D] money on a red roulette, [E] that's a ride you [A] can't refuse.

[A]
You can call me [D] Mr.
Raul Duke, [E] I know [A] what you mean.
Blinded [D] by a quart of rum [E] and a dose of [A]
mescaline.
[E] But mint 400 couldn't slow me [A] down, I'd rather [D] laugh than scream.
[A] Will the failure [D] of our generation, [E] pour a couple [A] bags of weed?
[E] We're burning down Las Vegas [A] town, had to [D] sleep by noon.
