THE STREET GIVETH AND THE STREET TAKETH AWAY
Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer

Rhy. Fig 1:
Lookout!

Rhy. Fig 2 w/ Riff 4:

Rhy. Fig 2:
Hey man, gotta take a stand, so you think that you've been had
I'm here to bet ya, street's gonna get ya, well two out of three ain't bad
Hey man, it's gettin' out of hand, cross your heart and hope to die

Rhy. Fig 3:
You got yours, and I got mine, I'm gonna get what's comin' to ya

Rhy. Fig 4:
'Cause the street giveth and the street taketh away
Where there's no blind justice, no way

Rhy. Fig 2 w/ Riff 5:

Rhy. Fig 2:
Hey man, don't you understand, you can run but you can't hide
There ain't no life after death, so save your breath (you're gonna)
Be a rock 'n roll suicide
Hey man, do you need a hand, but I ain't no blessing in disguise

Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Riff 1:
Feel the agony, and the ecstacy, it's gonna burn right through ya

Rhy. Fig 4:
'Cause the street giveth and the street taketh away
Where there's no blind justice, no way

Solo over Riff 2:

Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Riff 2:
Life's too short, so help yourself, 'cause I don't walk on water

Riff 3:

Rhy. Fig 2:
'Cause the street giveth and the street taketh away
Where there's no blind justice, no way

Rhy. Fig 2:
'Cause the street giveth and the street taketh away
