Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Verse 1: D G D I've seen you standing there, stunned in the spotlight E7 A I've seen the sweat streak of paint on your face D G D 'Cause you're caught like a clown in a circle of strangers A G D Who do you screw to get out of this place Chorus: G D It's a one for the money, and too far to go A G D Three fingers of whiskey, just for the soul G D That lady you're pleasin' is hungry and cold A G D Don't look in her eyes, you'll see what you sow
Verse 2: D G D Too many bodies in too many bars E7 A Too many feelings of fallin' behind D G D 'Cause you're easy to fool when you're lost in the stars A G D Shoot out that spotlight before you go blind Chorus: G D It's a one for the money, and too far to go A G D Three fingers of whiskey, just for the soul G D That lady you're pleasin' is hungry and cold A G D Don't look in her eyes, you'll see what you sow Coda: A G Take a look in her eyes, boy D A D And see what you sow
