Verse:

C majorC                FF        C majorC
I met her in a shootin’ gallery speedin' like a goose
     FF               C majorC
Back when both of us was used to making strangers
                  FF       C majorC
She shook me down for all I had and every way but loose
  D7D7                 G7G7
But I was still too juiced to feel the danger


Verse:

C majorC              FF       C majorC
Anyway now anymore you don't know which is worse
              FF
Fallin' out of love or left behind
                 C majorC
I just seen the sweetest dreaming wind up like a curse
G7G7         C majorC
Maybe one too many times

Chorus:

       FF              C majorC
But she said I don't want you baby I just want someone to hold me
     G7G7             C majorC
I got too much rock and roll to be a wife
    FF                 C majorC
I can't live without the lightnin' and I'm scared of growin' older
    G7G7               FF
So I'm bound to keep on runnin' for my life


Verse:

C majorC                 FF       C majorC
I've seen her roll herself into a tight and tiny ball
   FF               C majorC
Like a belly gunner crouchin' in a turret
                    FF      C majorC
I said I recognize the symptoms girl I got the same disease
 D7D7                G7G7
I just haven't got a clue to how to cure it


Verse:

  C majorC              FF      C majorC
And anyway now anymore you don't know who to trust
                 FF
Love is wild as lust and just as blind
            C majorC
Anyone who’s ever gonna love me better fool me first
  G7G7               C majorC
And baby maybe I been one too many times


Chorus:
     FF                  C majorC
But she said I don't want you baby I just want someone to hold me
     G7G7             C majorC
I got too much rock and roll to be a wife
    FF                 C majorC
I can't live without the lightnin' and I'm scared of growin' older
    G7G7               FF
So I'm bound to keep on runnin' for my life
