[Intro]
Bm A G D
Bm A G D
[Verse 1]
G A
If I fell in a lake
D
Would you dive in or stand there and gape
G A
And if I drowned, would you jump
D
Or would you let the water burst in my lungs
[Chorus 1]
G A
Well a stranger on the street
D G
Maybe the only one on his knees
D
When your laying by the roadside
A Bm A G D Bm A G D
Waiting for a friend to come
[Verse 2]
G
Got my hopes
A
Got my doubts
D
My gut reaction say's I got to find out
G A
Who's against, who to trust
D
Ooh you never know but I might get killed in the rush
[Chorus 2]
G A
But a stranger on the street
D G
Maybe the only one on his knees
D
When your laying by the roadside
A Bm A G D Bm A G D
Waiting for a friend to come
[Bridge 1]
G D F# Bm
You laugh you think it's a joke
G D A
Just stand there grinning
G D F# Bm
Will you be there at the post
G D A [Riff1]
When I ain't winning
[Verse 3]
G
Hey, black or white
A
Good and bad
D
How many times have I done this and done that
G
Every life
A
Everyone
D
If I knew that I'd probably take out a gun
[Chorus 3]
G A
But it's mother natures law
D G
To get you coming back for more
D
Instead of laying by the roadside
A Bm A G D Bm A G D
Waiting for a friend to come
[Bridge 2]
G D F# Bm
You laugh you think it's a joke

When I ain't winning
[Verse 4]

Hey, black or white
A
Good and bad
D
How many times have I done this and done that
G
Every life
A
Everyone
D
If I knew that I'd probably take out a gun
[Chorus 4]
G A
But it's mother natures law
D G
To get you coming back for more
D
Instead of laying by the roadside
A Bm A G D
Waiting for the end to come
D
JustLaying by the roadside
A Bm A G D
Waiting for a friend to come
