F#m
Verse:
F#mMy bed is now a cylinder of steel
Cold and hard and shiny
To match the way I feel
The dust in here is like a burning wind
Black as coal and thunder
Dark as all my sins
Chorus:
F#mI took it for a Along, long tBmime
And a Ewoman can take a F#mlot
Two can be uAndone by Bmthree
EBut it only takes one F#mshot
Verse:
F#mYou were there
To see me beg and kneel
What kind of man would ask me then
If he could make a deal?
When lovers of the future read these lines
A sound of steel and thunder
Will echo in their minds

Two can be uAndone by Bmthree
EBut it only takes one F#mshot
