Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
D MajorD               G+G       D MajorD
I've seen you standing there, stunned in the spotlight
               E7E7      A augmentedA
I've seen the sweat streak of paint on your face
       D MajorD            G+G     D MajorD
'Cause you're caught like a clown in a circle of strangers
      A augmentedA      G+G      D MajorD
Who do you screw to get out of this place

Chorus:
          G+G           D MajorD
It's a one for the money, and too far to go
         A augmentedA   G+G        D MajorD
Three fingers of whiskey, just for the soul
         G+G           D MajorD
That lady you're pleasin' is hungry and cold
         A augmentedA  G+G          D MajorD
Don't look in her eyes, you'll see what you sow

Verse 2:
D MajorD          G+G    D MajorD
Too many bodies in too many bars
           E7E7   A augmentedA
Too many feelings of fallin' behind
       D MajorD             G+G     D MajorD
'Cause you're easy to fool when you're lost in the stars
        A augmentedA     G+G      D MajorD
Shoot out that spotlight before you go blind

Chorus:
          G+G           D MajorD
It's a one for the money, and too far to go
         A augmentedA   G+G       D MajorD
Three fingers of whiskey, just for the soul
         G+G           D MajorD
That lady you're pleasin' is hungry and cold
         A augmentedA  G+G          D MajorD
Don't look in her eyes, you'll see what you sow

Coda:
          A augmentedA      G+G
Take a look in her eyes, boy
         D MajorD  A augmentedA  D MajorD
And see what you sow
