C Am
Go on girl take your chances
Dm G7
See how long you can go on from man to man
E Am
I can read the lines between your stolen glances
D G7
And I know it's time to fold this loosing hand
C G7 C G7
Cause you're drawn to the flame by the thrill and the shame
C F G7
Of the cheatin' game they taught you how to play
C E Am F
You've got nothing to lose but your soul girl
C G7
And you've only the devil to pay

G7
'You've been flying so high you don't know
C
That you're blind to the writin' on the wall
D7
But some day you'll look down
G7
And you'll find you've got no place to fall
C G7 C G7
When the bright lights're gone you'll be standing alone
C F G7
Forsaken in the naked light of day
C E Am F
Then you'll know that it's all over but the dying
C G7
And you've still got the devil to pay

C Am
Join your friends while you got 'em
Dm G7
Cause you know they're gettin' fewer every day
E Am
You can't wait to let them take you to the bottom
D G7
And I'm gettin' tired of standin' in your way
C G7 C G7
But when you hit the ground don't come looking around
F G7
For the pieces of the love you threw away
C E Am F
That's the price of the high life you're livin'
C G7
And you still got the devil to pay
