D C A D C E Just another hunter, like a wolf in the sun D C A D C G Just another junkie on a scoring run Just another victim of the things he has done Just another day in the life of a loaded gun G The odds get even You name the game The odds get even The stakes are the same D/F# You bet your life. Just another winner, pours his life down the drain Just another island in a hurricane Just another loser, like a cat in the rain Just another day in the path of a speeding train The odds get even You name the game The odds get even The stakes are the same You bet your life.
