         F          C             G     C
There's gotta be a record of you some place
       Am          G          C
Youve gotta be on somebodys books
F    C         G               Esus4
The lowdown a picture of youre face
Am              G6
Youre injured looks
F                C
The sacred and profane
F                     C  G
The pleasure and the pain
 C               G             Am       Em
Somewhere youre fingerprints remain concrete
    Dm                 A#
And its youre face im looking for
   C           Am
On every street

A ladykiller regulation tattoo
Silver spurs on his heels
Says "What can I tell you as I'm standing next to you"
She threw herself under my wheels
Oh it's a dangerous road
And a hazardous load
And the fireworks over liberty explode in the heat
And it's your face I'm looking for on every street

A three-chord symphony crashes into space
The moon is hanging upside down
I don't know why it is I'm still on the case
It's a ravenous town
And you still refuse to be traced
Seems to me such a waste
And every victory has a taste that's bittersweet
And it's your face I'm looking for on every street
Yeah it's your face I'm looking for on every street
