          E
Well you played your cards and showed your coins
Emaj7
Raised some hell and made some noise
     A                                        F#m7
And Lord knows you burned your candle at both ends
            E
Yeah, you spent your bottom dollar twice
   Emaj7
On anything to get you high
          A                                  F#m7
Are you playing the odds or just playing pretend?
Here you go again

Chorus:
             E
You say goodbye
                                     Emaj7
Keep on running through the same red lights
                                     A
Rubber to the road and the dang headlights
They always find a highway to
F#m7
Anywhere out of here
             E
You got so close
                                Emaj7
Got caught swimming in the undertow
                                   A
Of whiskey, women and a cloud of smoke
It ain't that hard to do
    F#m7
You get lost living like you ain't got nothing
    E
to lose
    Emaj7
Mmm yeah
                              Amaj7 F#m7
Like you ain't got nothing to lose

Well you hit your knees and say your prayers
Even if there's no-one there
You scream up at the sky until it rains
Yeah and then the right one comes around
And you swear that you'll settle down
Hell you even believe that this time you can change
But you're still the same

Chorus

F#m                    E
Bmm, you started with nothing
That turned into something
               Emaj7
And all of the sudden
You start running
                Amaj7
What the hell's wrong with you?
                 F#m7
Boy what's going on with you?
                     E
Yeah I started with nothing
And it turned into something
             Emaj7
And all of a sudden
I started running
                Amaj7
What the hell's wrong with me?
                      F#m7          A
Yeah is this how it's always gonna be?

Chorus:
I say goodbye
Keep on running through the same red lights
Rubber to the road and them dang headlights
They always find a highway to anywhere out of here
I got so close
Got caught swimming in the undertow
Of whiskey, women and the cloud of smoke
It ain't that hard to do
You get lost living like you ain't got
nothing to lose
Yeah like you ain't got nothing to lose
Mm nothing to lose
