Em Bm He sticks to his guns C Bm He take the road as it comes Am G C It take the shine off his shoes Em Bm He says it's a shame C Bm You know it may be a game Am G C Ah, but I won't play to lose He's burning the grass He take up a glass He swallow it neat He crosses the floor He open the door He take a sniff of the street Chorus: D C D And she tell him that he's crazy C Em She's a-saying "listen baby I'm your wife" C D C D Yes She tell him that he's crazy C Am For gambling a-with his life But he climbs on his horse You know he feel no remorse He just a-kicks it alive His motor is fine He take it over the line Until he's ready to dive Chorus He sticks to his guns He take the road as it comes It take the shine off his shoes He says it's a shame "You know, it may be a game Ah, but I won't play to lose" He sticks to his guns He take the road as it comes It take the shine off his shoes He's too fast to stop He take it over the top He make a line in the news You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  D  Em  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
