Intro: C   Am   F   G   F   G   C


C               F
Once we rode together
        G
In a metal firecracker
 C                      F
You told me I was your queen
C                      F
You told me I was your biker
C                 F     C
You told me I was everything

C                  F
Once I was in your blood
              G
And you were obsessed with me
C                       F
You wanted to paint my picture
C                    F
You wanted to undress me
C                   F          C
You wanted to see me in your future

       Am       F                    G
All I ask - Don't tell anybody the secrets
F                     G               C
Don't tell anybody the secrets - I told you
       Am       F                    G
All I ask - Don't tell anybody the secrets
F                     G               C
Don't tell anybody the secrets - I told you

C     Am      F      G     F     G     C

C                  F
Once you held me so tight
     G
I thought I'd lose my mind
C                     F
You said I rocked your world
C                   F
You said it was for all time
C                      F            C
You said that I would always be your girl

C             F
We'd put on ZZ Top
     G
And turn em up real loud
C                      F
I used to think you were strong
C                       F
I used to think you were proud
C                    F          C
I used to think nothing could go wrong


       Am        F                    G
All I ask - Don't tell anybody the secrets
F                     G               C
Don't tell anybody the secrets - I told you
       Am       F                    G
All I ask - Don't tell anybody the secrets
F                     G               C
Don't tell anybody the secrets - I told you


C     Am      F      G     F     G     C
