Verse 1
G 
D 
G 
D 
G 
D 
G 
I met her in a shooting gallery,
D 
speeding like a goose
G 
Back when both of us were used
D 
G 
to making strangers
D 
She shook me down for all I had
G 
D 
and every way but loose
E 
But I  was still too juiced
A 
to feel the danger
Em 
D 
And anyway now,
G 
D 
anymore you don't know which is worse
Falling out of love or left behind
G 
I just seen the sweetest dreaming
D 
Bm 
G 
A 
wind up like a curse
D 
Maybe one too many times.

Verse 2
D 
G 
But she said, "I don't want you baby,
D 
I just want someone to hold me
A 
D 
I got too much rock and roll to be a wife
G 
I can't live without the lightning and
D 
I'm scared of growing older
A 
So I'm bound to keep on
G 
running for my life"

I've seen her

Verse 3
roll herself
G 
D 
into a  tight and tiny ball
G 
Like a belly- gunner
D 
crouching in a turret
G 
D 
I said, I recognize the symptoms,
G 
D 
girl, I got the same disease
E 
I just haven't got a
A 
clue to how to cure it
G 
D 
And any way, now, any more,
G 
D 
you don't know who to trust
'Cause love is wild as lust
G 
and just as blind
D 
Anyone who's ever gonna love
me - better fool me first
A 
And baby, maybe,
D 
I been one too many times.

Verse 4
D 
G 
But she said, "I don't want you baby,
D 
I just want someone to hold me
A 
D 
I got too much rock and roll to be a wife
G 
I can't live without the lightning and
D 
I'm scared of growing older
A 
So I'm bound to keep on running
G 
for my life"
