Ab Filling an hour glass with his sins Dbm He only cares for momentary wins A E Yes, he's been in the belly of the beast Ab Oh, he's had a bird in hand Dbm But he won't release A And he's walked the plank to the bitter end E And there's always calm after the storm Ab And fools rush in where angels fear to tread Dbm But his hands are cold and his heart is warm Chorus: E Ab Dbm Between the devil and the deep blue sea E Ab Dbm A drowning man will clutch at a straw E Ab Dbm He who lives by the sword will die by the sword E Ab Dbm And all is fair in love and war E Ab Dbm Dbm Oh, all is fair in love and war Verse 2: (A or N.C.) E He's been throwing caution to the wind Ab Dbm Filling an hour glass with his sins A E He only cares for momentary wins Ab Dbm His highest worship is shaking his limbs A And he's run with wolves to be standing here E And he's waltzed on edges to have no fear Ab And he's climbed the walls to see this view Dbm And he's fought many wars and lost very few Chorus: E Ab Dbm Between the devil and the deep blue sea E Ab Dbm A drowning man will clutch at a straw E Ab Dbm He who lives by the sword will die by the sword E Ab Dbm And all is fair in love and war E Ab Dbm Dbm Oh, all is fair in love and war ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note | b Bend | pb Pre-bend | br Bend release | pbr Pre-bend release | brb Bend release bend
