A        G        D          C
Out on the town, looking for a woman
A   G               D  C
Gonna give me good love

Anybody want to hang out with me?
And maybe burn it up

She was standing alone over by the jukebox
Like she's something to sell

A         G               D      C
I said, "Baby what's the going price?"
     A       G           D
She told me to go to hell

Chorus:
               A   G D C
Shot down in flames
               A   G D C
Shot down in flames
C            A  G D
Ain’t it a shame
    C                A    G D
To be shot down in flames?

Singles bar, got my eye on a honey
Hanging out everywhere
She might be straight
She might want my money
I really don't care, no
Said, "Baby, you're driving me crazy"
Laid it right on the line
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder said
"Toss off, buddy, she's mine"

Chorus:
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain’t it a shame, yeah
To be shot down in flames?

Hey you, Angus, shoot me, shoot!
That's nice, woah!

Chorus:
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain’t it a shame
To be shot down in flames?

Chorus:
Shot
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain’t it a shame
To be shot down in flames?

I don't need the pain
Don't want to be shot down in flames
Ohhh
