G D Feet don't fail me now G D Take me to the finish line C Em All my heart, it breaks every step that I take D But I'm hoping that the gates, They'll tell me that you're mine Walking through the city streets, is it by mistake or design? I feel so alone on a Friday night Can you make it feel like home, if I tell you you're mine? It's like I told you, honey ("Louder!") C Em D Don't make me sad, don't make me cry Cmaj7 Sometimes love is not enough when the road gets tough C I don't know why Em Keep making me laugh, D Let's go get high Cmaj7 Road's long, we carry on C Try to have fun in the meantime Chorus: Em Come and take a walk on the wild side D Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain Cmaj7 You like your girls insane C Em Choose your last words D This is the last time C Cause you and I, we were born to die Lost, but now I am found I can see that once I was blind I was so confused as a little child Tried to take what I could get, scared that I couldn't find All the answers I need ("Louder!") Don't make me sad, don't make me cry Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough I don't know why Keep making me laugh—let's go get high The road is long, we carry on Try to have fun in the meantime Chorus C Em D Cmaj7 We were born to die Em We were born to die Am Em Come and take a walk on the wild side D Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain You like your girls insane So don't make me sad, don't make me cry Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough I don't know why Keep making me laugh—let's go get high The road is long, we carry on Try to have fun in the meantime Chorus We were born to die We were born to die You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm C Cm Cmaj7 Cmaj D Em G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
