AmI hit the road in a '52Dm Ford
GA pack of matches
And a poAmstcard on the dashboard
AmThe sun was set
DmThe gas gauge was low
GAnd it was time toAm go
AmI met the girl at a jukDme joint on the fly
GNeeded a friend the day my mother dAmied
AmHer place was hot and it smeDmlled of sin
GI guess when one life goes another beAmgins
DmHey now, wAmhat you gonna do?
EGot a fiver in your pocket
AmAnd a switchblade in your boot
DmHey now whAmat you gonna say
ETo make it go awAmay?
AmI found the city by the mDmark on the stamp
GStudied it under the liAmght of a hotel lamp
AmI found his work, I foDmund their home
GI waited until I knAmew she was alone
AmI didn't want the child tAmo see life
GI justified that it woAmunded my pride
AmMy mind was set that nDmo one could know
GThe girl had to Amgo
DmHey now, wAmhat you gonna do?
EGot a fiver in your pocket
AmAnd a switchblade in your boot
DmHey now whAmat you gonna say
ETo make it go aAmway?
DmHey now, whAmat you gonna do?
EGot a fiver in your pocket
AmAnd a switchblade in your boot
DmHey now wAmhat you gonna say
ETo make it go awAmay?
AmLight stumbled in
Through a cDmrack in the shades
GReflected off of the eAmdge of my blade
AmAs I reached for the girl
DmWith the knife in my hand
GI thought "I guess the kiAmd deserves a chance"
AmHer man came in as I stDmarted to go
GMy last intentions; hAmow could he know?
AmThe blade sunk deep inDmto my skin
GI guess when one life gAmoes another begins
