DmI hit the road in a '52Gm Ford
CA pack of matches
And a poDmstcard on the dashboard
DmThe sun was set
GmThe gas gauge was low
CAnd it was time toDm go
DmI met the girl at a jukGme joint on the fly
CNeeded a friend the day my mother dDmied
DmHer place was hot and it smeGmlled of sin
CI guess when one life goes another beDmgins
GmHey now, wDmhat you gonna do?
AGot a fiver in your pocket
DmAnd a switchblade in your boot
GmHey now whDmat you gonna say
ATo make it go awDmay?
DmI found the city by the mGmark on the stamp
CStudied it under the liDmght of a hotel lamp
DmI found his work, I foGmund their home
CI waited until I knDmew she was alone
DmI didn't want the child tDmo see life
CI justified that it woDmunded my pride
DmMy mind was set that nGmo one could know
CThe girl had to Dmgo
GmHey now, wDmhat you gonna do?
AGot a fiver in your pocket
DmAnd a switchblade in your boot
GmHey now whDmat you gonna say
ATo make it go aDmway?
GmHey now, whDmat you gonna do?
AGot a fiver in your pocket
DmAnd a switchblade in your boot
GmHey now wDmhat you gonna say
ATo make it go awDmay?
DmLight stumbled in
Through a cGmrack in the shades
CReflected off of the eDmdge of my blade
DmAs I reached for the girl
GmWith the knife in my hand
CI thought "I guess the kiDmd deserves a chance"
DmHer man came in as I stGmarted to go
CMy last intentions; hDmow could he know?
DmThe blade sunk deep inGmto my skin
CI guess when one life gDmoes another begins
