      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
