C Am Go on girl take your chances Dm G7 See how long you can go on from man to man E Am I can read the lines between your stolen glances D G7 And I know it's time to fold this loosing hand C G7 C G7 Cause you're drawn to the flame by the thrill and the shame C F G7 Of the cheatin' game they taught you how to play C E Am F You've got nothing to lose but your soul girl C G7 Am And you've only the devil to pay Chorus: G7 'You've been flying so high you don't know C That you're blind to the writin' on the wall D7 But some day you'll look down G7 And you'll find you've got no place to fall C G7 C G7 When the bright lights're gone you'll be standing alone C F G7 Forsaken in the naked light of day C E Am F Then you'll know that it's all over but the dying C G7 Am And you've still got the devil to pay Join your friends while you got them Cause you know they're gettin' fewer every day You can't wait to let them take you to the bottom And I'm getting tired of standing in your way But when you hit the ground don't come looking around For the pieces of the love you threw away That's the price of the high life you're living And you still got the devil to pay Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  D  Dm  D7  E  F  G7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
