## NOTE 2: G* = 320033 ##
INTRO: G C G C G C G
C G
Dodging the blues, but the blues were gaining fast
Em D
Riding the news, knowing news just doesn't last
C G Am D
Heaven, come seven, with the rolling of the bones
C D G
Ah, but winning never feels like going home
C G
He's thick at the bottom, thin at the top
Em D
Like a bottle shaken, with a cork that wouldn't pop
C G Am D
Pretending and descending to the land of woe
C D G D G
Oh, life's not what you think, it's what you know
CHORUS:
N.C. C D G G* G
So take it downtown tonight
D C
When nobody's looking, you can slip it out of sight
D G
Since you're devil bound, it's hell downtown tonight
INSTRUMENTAL: C G Em D C G Am D C D G
C G
He's beard, bone and gristle, the rest is mostly mule
Em D
He's running from the whistles, he's running as a rule
C G Am D
Pretending and descending to the land of woe
C D G
Oh, when you give your hand to fate, she don't let go
CHORUS:
N.C. C D G G* G
So take it downtown tonight
D C
When nobody's looking, you can slip it out of sight
D G
Since you're devil bound, it's hell downtown tonight
C G
Dodging the blues, but the blues were gaining fast
Em D
Riding the news, knowing news just doesn't last
C G Am D
Heaven, come seven, with the rolling of the bones
C D G
Ah, but life's not what you think, it's what you know
C D G C D G
And when you give your hand to fate, she don't let go
