Chords

(Album: Shangri-La) Intro: D Bm G D D6 G D A D
D                      D6 
I got shot off my horse

             G 
So what? I'm up again
And playing in one of these
               D   D6 
Big saloons on main

        G 
You can come up here

A 
Take a look

             D            D6 
Around these sinners' dens

       G                         
You're only ever going to find

                A
One or two real games

G        D 
Nobody's driving

   A           G
Me underground

D          A    A7 A
Not yet anyway

    D                  D6 
But either on the strip 

          G
Or on the edge of town
Everybody pays
                  D 
Everybody pays to play
D6 Bm G D A
D 
Yeah, you ought to stay

      D6 
Right where you are

   G 
In sawdust land
It's probably the
                D  D6
Safest place to be

          G             A
With your greasy little pork pies

         D               D6 
And your shoestring hands 

G                         A
It makes no difference to me

G           D 
All those directions

         A         G
Which we never took

   D                A   A7 A
To go our different ways

D                           
Who went and wrote

D6               G
The oldest story in the book?
Everybody pays
                  D 
Everybody pays to play
D6 Bm G D A Am B G/E A Dm G7/D C E Am B G/E A Dm C A# A
D
Curl up inside

  D6
A boxcar dream

    G
And disappear
With a couple
           D      D6
Low roller friends

         G
You were never one

    A
For trouble

       D          D6
So get out of here

  G
I knew the game

                   A
Was dangerous back then

    G        D
But nobody's breezing

              A
Through these swinging doors

G                  A
Just ups and walks away

D                D6
Everybody has to leave

                G
Some blood here on the floor
Everybody pays
                  D   D6 Bm 
Everybody pays to play

G 
Everybody pays
