G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
I used to be an only son
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
My heart was but a stranger
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
It wallowed in the races won
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
and it craves the petty dangers.
E*
When it sat alone,
C/GC/G
and pined and pondered
E* C/GC/G
On the chosen roads it had to wander.
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
Ohhhh ohh ohhhh x4
Chorus
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
Well I used to be an only son.
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
My heart was but a gambler
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
Oh heavy as a loaded gun!
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
It howled above the weather
Verse 2
E* C/GC/G
And its evil ways let me forget her
E* C/GC/G
And this dirty blood will burn forever,
C/GC/G
in us together.
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
Ohhhh ohh ohhhh x4
Chorus
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
Well I used to be an only son.
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
My heart was but a gambler
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
Oh heavy as a loaded gun!
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
It howled above the weather
E* C/GC/G
And its evil ways let me forget her
E* C/GC/G
And this dirty blood will burn forever,
C/GC/G
in us together.
G+G D MajorD C/GC/G
