       G               Em
Go on, girl, take your chances
        A7                             D
See how long you can go on from man to man
      B7                                 Em
I can read the lines between your stolen glances
      A                 A7               D
And I know it's time to fold this losing hand
              G            D
'Cause you're drawn to the flame
       G              D
By the thrill and the shame
       G                  C                 D
Of the cheating game they taught you how to play
           G          B7            Em         C
You've got nothing to lose but your soul girl
           G             D        (Intro Riff - or just play Em)
And you've still got the devil to pay

            D                                         D7           G
D      G
You've been flying so high you don't know that you're blind to the writing-
on the wall
        A                                             A7          D
D7
But someday you'll look down & you'll find you've got no place to fall
         G                 D
When the bright lights are gone
          G         D
You'll be standing alone
   G            C              D
Forsaken in the naked light of day
            G                  B7           Em     C
Then you'll know that it's all over but the dying
           G             D        (Intro Riff - or just play Em)
And you've still got the devil to pay.
