Verse 1:
Gm
  In the middle of a gun fight
Cm                         Bb
  In the center of a restaurant...
                Dsus4      D              Gm
They say, "Come with your arms raised high!"
Well, they're never gonna get me,
Cm                                 Bb
  Like a bullet through a flock of doves...
           Dsus4 D             Gm      Cm
To wage this war against your faith in me,
     Bb          Dsus4 D         Gm
Your life...will never be the same.
        Cm                   Bb             Dsus4 D
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer...say a prayer!

Chorus:
Gm
Now, but I can't
          Cm
And I don't know
                                 F
How we're just two men as God had made us,
                        Dsus4 D
Well, I can't...well, I can!
Gm
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this
Cm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish,
F                   Dsus4 D
I'll kiss your lips again.


Verse 2:
Gm
They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost,
    Cm                                    Bb
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups (in drag)
                           Dsus4                  D
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself am I losing myself?
      Gm
Well, I miss my mom,
Will they give me the chair,
   Cm                                 Bb
Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare;
                 Dsus4               D
Ah, nobody knows all the trouble I've seen!


Chorus:
Gm
Now, but I can't
       Cm
And I don't know
                                  F
How we're just two men as God had made us,
                        Dsus4 D
Well, I can't, well, I can!
Gm
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this
Cm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish,
F                   Dsus4 D
I'll kiss your lips again.

Interlude:
Bb      Cm
To your room...
          Gm
What they ask of you
     F                Bb       Cm
Will make you want to say, "So long..."
        Gm
Well, I don't remember,
F
Why remember you?

Chorus:
Gm            Cm
Life is but a dream for the dead,
            F
And well I, I won't go down by myself,
                         Dsus4 D
But I'll go down with my friends.
Gm          Cm
Now now now now... (I can't explain)
        F
Now now now... (I can't complain)
         Dsus4 D
Now now, yeah!
Gm
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
