E           C#m
Blackout in London
Just slip and slide
Blackout in London
           A       B      G#
I'm just about to lose my mind

Big time in Paris
Time's gonna fly
Big time in Paris
It's c'est la vie for me tonight

Chorus:
C#m     B
Here I go
E           D             C#m     B
To take the one and only road I know
G#     A
In my life
Here I go
Another place to bare my heart and soul
Restless nights

Hot shot in Dallas
A wild horse to ride
Hot shot in Dallas
I don't know how but I survived

Rock hard in Rio
Pure sex and crime
Rock hard in Rio
It's just too much to take tonight

Chorus

Restless nights
Restless nights

Red hot in Moscow
Turn back the tide
Red hot in Moscow
The eagle rocks the bear tonight

Die hard in Tokyo
Lexington nights
Die hard in Tokyo
I barely made it out alive

Chorus
