Verse:
         D                                             G 
He got a crim-son red tat-too  keeps it hid-den just a-bove his t-shirt sleeve,
                                D                                        A
It's a brok-en heart and the in-scrip-tion reads   'No love songs if you please',
D                                                              G                               
But he don't real-ly mean that,  yes it's on-ly cheek-y tongue,
                           D                       A7                 D           A

  He knows the street like he knows his last name  and the cit-y from the wrong side out,  
                                     D                                                 A
He knows that time is cruel and an-y man's a fool   who hides the truth be-hind  his mouth;  
             D                                                                    G
He knows The Duke of Earl, he knows  My Girl,  and The House of the Ris - ing Sun,
                         D                         A                  D           D

He knows an old  ho-tel   where the desk clerk will sell you your soul back reas-'nab-ly cheap.
        A                                                          Bm7     E          Em7       A7
or this guy you can call when you're crawl-in' the wall  and  the  whole / town's / a-sleep.

Verse:
         D                                             G
He don't prom-ise what he don't de-liv-er  he keeps it all in the eas-y keys.   
                                  D                                          A
He don't dream be-yond his ex-pec-tat-ions  but he got the stance down to a 'T';
