A different tune
Verse 1:
E
Your trail is hot man, it?s still smokin?
B E
You?re gone for good babe, I ain?t dumb
E
I knew you were tired of hearing
B E
The same old song I sung
A
You packed up your magazine
E
The one that tells you what to do
A C#m
I?m not the kind of man you need
B E
To make your dreams come true
Chorus 2:
B
I need to find a faster car
A E
To give you a little more room
B
I need a longer lariat
A B
To lasso you the moon (Chorus 1)
Verse 2:
Baby, was I that ripe for the pickin?
You set your sights like a loaded gun
The bullet hit but it ain?t stickin?
It?s hard to shoot when you?re on the run
I?m the one you set your sights for
But not the one you?re gonna keep
You go out runnin? after midnight
Walkin? in my sleep
Chorus 2, Chorus 1
