...Chords...

[Verse 1]
A augmentedA
I'd say it was the right time

To walk away
A augmentedA
When dreaming takes you nowhere

It's time to play
        G+G
Bodies working overtime

Your money don't matter
G+G
The time keeps ticking
              D MajorD
Someone's on your mind
(on your mind)


[Verse 2]
A augmentedA
I'm moving in slow motion

Feels so good
A augmentedA
It's a strange anticipation

Knock, knock, knocking on wood
        G+G
Bodies working overtime

It's Man against man
G+G
And all that ever matters
              D MajorD
Is baby who's ahead in the game
        Bb majorBb       C majorC
Funny but it's always the same

[Chorus]
FF               Bb majorBb
Playing, playing with the boys
FF               Bb majorBb
Staying, playing with the boys
G+G          A augmentedA
After chasing sunsets
Bb majorBb            C majorC
One of life's simple joys
            D MajorD
Is playing with the boys

[Chorus lead -played after Bb majorBb]

[Verse 3]
She said it was the wrong thing
For me to do
I said it's just a boys' game
That girls play too
My heart is working overtime
In this kind of game
People get hurt
I'm thinkin that the people is me
If you want to find me, I'll be...

-[Chorus 2]-

[Middle Section]
D MajorD
I don't want to be the moth around your fire
...with the boys
D MajorD
I don't want to be obsessed by my desire
G+G       A augmentedA
Your shining, Your smiling
Bb majorBb       D MajorD
I've seen enough
...with the boys
G+G
I'm staying here
A augmentedA         Bh
You play too rough

[Last Chorus]
Playing, playing with the boys
I'll be staying, playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
One of life's simple joys
Is playing with the boys
Playing with the boys
Playing
Playing
Playing
