Love Like Kerosene
EI've been spendin' all my money … Started smokin' cigarettes
EI've been sleepin' with the bottle … She's not finished with me yet
AShe's like bad bad whiskey … devil in a feverish drEeam
B7But I'm not going into fire
GHer love liAke kerosenEe
ESaid she'd meet me in the alleyway … 'Round quarter to twelve
EGonna bring me some of those good green leaves … We're gonna raise some hell
A'Cause like bad bad whiskey … A devil in a feverish drEeam
B7And I'm not sleeping near the fire
GHer love liAke kerosenEe
[Interlude – Everybody Solos]
EWell I know I'm not a young man … And it's time to settle down
EBut all my mind is so messed up … Every time she comes around
AShe's like bad bad whiskey … A devil in a feverish dEream
B7But I'm not sleeping near the fire … GHer love lAike kerosEene
B7I'm not going near the fire … GHer love Alike kerosEene
B7I'm not going near the fire … GHer love, oh … Ait's like kEerosene
