Main Riff E x4(?)

-=Verse1=-
Main Riff E               Main Riff E
          I got no reason,          to lie to you
Main Riff E                   Main Riff E
          What's in the cards,          that's what I do
Main Riff E                    Main Riff E
          I was born a-running           & laughing out loud
Main Riff E                          Main Riff E
          With my feet on the ground           & my head in the clouds

-=Chorus=-
E          A                       E   Main Riff E
You better run, oh baby you better run

I got a blade like lightning,      silver bullets in my gun
E Main Riff E    B
   ^Bass only on this Main Riff

-=Verse2=-
I'm short & I'm tall, I'm black & I'm white
Sometimes I be wrong, sometimes I be right
I'm iron & steel, I'm bad to the bone
You come looking for trouble, honey don't you come alone

-=Chorus=-
You better run, oh baby you better run
I got a blade like lightning, silver bullets in my gun
