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