INTRO
D (RIFF) G x2
D
The devil owns a hill in my town
G
Pulls you fast as you're riding down
Bm D
And at the bottom there's a cop in a church parking lot
D
I got stopped and wondered why
G
My surroundings can't choose sides
Bm A
But I can't rightly get mad 'cos neither can I
Bm
Neither can I
G
I...
D
I can't choose sides
D (RIFF) G x2
D
Lately I've been getting bruised
G
By love I can't afford to lose
Bm D
And I can't say that I like it, but what else am I supposed to do?
D
I've learned this trick, you hand me a noose
G
And I will craft you an excuse
Bm A
And I'll deliver it direct to the tip of your tongue
Bm
In place of "I'm sorry"
A
"I'm sorry"
D
Let's not say it if nobody is
D (RIFF) G x4
Bm A G G
D
Driving last week we nearly died
G
And nothing flashed before my eyes
Bm A
But I think I spilled something on your leather seats
Bm
And I'm sorry about that
G
I'm sorry about that
D
I'll pay for it.
D (RIFF) G
