My baby [A#] told me [D#] you gotta [B] get better if you ever [F#] wanna win, and [A#] I know that,
[D#] she's not
getting [B] any better man, she's [F#] just sinning.
I [A#] said love her,
[D#] cause I know [B] I was once there wearing [F#] them shoes, I'm [A#] still her king, [D#] cause
the woman [B] I love's giving me [F#] the blues.
[A#]
[D#m] [B] [A]
[F#] I'm sitting [A#] here sober,
[D#m] but I wonder [B] what shape she'll find [F#] me in, I [A#] need her under
my skin, [D#m] like a junkie [B] needs heroin, [F#] and I'm never going back [A#] to snaking, chase them [D#m] out
of money I spent, I [B] could've bought the place, [F#] and not to mention [A#] that they know my [D#m] face,
and now it's hell [B] getting out the [F#] place, so I'm walking [A#] the streets tonight, [D#] I'm catching
[B] some [F#] fireflies, some would say [A#] that I'm living the lie, [D#] but no more today, [B] no more [E]
[F#] tonight,
you could say [A#] that I'm under the gun, [D#m] nine million miles [B] away from the sun, [F#] hesitated
[A#] much too long, [D#m] still having [D#] fun, [B] hope you're having [F#] fun, [A#]
[D#m] [B] [F#]
[D#m]
[B] [F#]
belly up [A#] in an ambulance, [D#m] spent
some day [B] making doctor [F#m] friends, [F#] I could use a [A#] pair of D-pens, [D#] I hope that makes you laugh,
[B] cause you know I'm a gentleman, [F#] heaven found me living, didn't [A#] find me dead, [D#m] got a permanent
ash [B] mark on my [F#m] forehead, [F#] still couldn't save me [A#] from lying in bed, staring [D#m] at your clothes
in the closet [B] while I was out of my [F#m] head, [F#] so I'm walking [A#] the streets tonight, [D#m] I'm catching
[B] some [F#] fireflies, some would say [A#] that I'm living the lie, [D#m] but no [D#] more today, [B] no more tonight,
[F#] you could say [A#] that I'm under the gun, [D#m] nine million miles [B] away from the [F#] sun,
I've hesitated [A#] much too long, [D#m] but I'm still having fun, [B] hope you're having
[F#] fun,
