[Verse]
Am Dm
In the middle of a gun fight...
C
In the center of a restaurant...
E Am
They say, "Come with your arms raised high!"
Dm
Well, they're never gonna get me,
C
Like a bullet through a flock of doves...
E Am Dm
To wage this war against your faith in me,
C E Am
Your life...will never be the same.
Dm C E
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer...say a prayer!
[Chorus]
Am
Now, but I can't
Dm
And I don't know
C
How we're just two men as God had made us,
E
Well, I can't...well, I can!
Am
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this
Dm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish,
C E
I'll kiss your lips again.
[Verse]
Am
They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost,
Dm C
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups (in drag)
E
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself...am I losing myself?!
Am
Well, I miss my mom,
Will they give me the chair,
Dm C
Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare;
E
Ah, nobody knows...all the trouble I've seen!
[Chorus]
Am
Now, but I can't
Dm
And I don't know
C
How we're just two men as God had made us,
E
Well, I can't...well, I can!
Am
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this
Dm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish,
C E
I'll kiss your lips again.
[Interlude]
Am Dm
To your room...
C
What they ask of you
E Am Dm
Will make you want to say, "So long..."
C
Well, I don't remember,
E Am
Why remember...YOU?!
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Dm
Do you have the keys to the hotel?!
C E
'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire! (FIRE!!)
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Life is but a dream for the dead,
C
And well I, I won't go down by myself,
E
But I'll go down with my friends.
Am Dm
Now now now now... (I can't explain)
C
Now now now... (I can't complain)
E
Now now, yeah!
Am
Now, now, now, now, now, now!
