A                F#m           G             D
Fatal fascination   for - the seedy part of town
A                   F#m              G          D
You walk down the street - and your head spins round
A              F#m                   G         D
Don't be seen alone - without your friends at night
       F#m            E             G   A
Take a gun - Take a knife - to the low life

Don't have to be born into this society
Pay for love but the hate comes free
Bring enough money for the rest of your life
Don't bring your wife to the low life

G             C             A    C
Bringing us there - to the degredation
G                 C           A
Always keep your back to the wall
C                      D
No rewards for your infatuation
Em      G
Low life

Chorus:
D          A
No life at all
F#m    A        F#m
Yeah, low life, low life

B          G#m             A      E
In here to long - to be afraid anymore
B                   G#m            A            E
You can't reach the bed - so you sleep on the floor
B            G#m          A               E
You get so stoned - you think you could fly
G#m                F#          G   A
But you won't get high on the low life

 A   B     A   B
Low life, Low life
Low life, Low Life
Low life, Low life,
Low life, Low life,
Low life, Low life,
Low life, Low life,
Low life
