[Intro/Riff]
  E    G  E    G  E    G  A    G
|       |       |       |       | x2
[Verse 1]
E               G
Rollin' down a long highway
A                        G
Out through New Mexico
E                  G
Driftin' down to Santa Fe
           A                G
To ride a bull in a rodeo
E                  G
He's hooked on a feelin'
A                             G
Addicted to a natural high
E                        G
Don't know why it's appealin'
         A
All he knows is he's got to ride
[Chorus]
C         D         E
He's addicted to danger
C            D          E
Ruled by passion and pride
    C        D               E
To pain and fear he's no stranger
         C                  D
But his lust needs to be satisfied
C            D         E
Hooked on an 8 second ride
[Riff]
  E    G  E    G  E    G  A    G
|       |       |       |       | x2
[Verse 2]
E                     G
Getting hooked up in back of the chutes
A                       G
Makes the rosin burn
E                           G
He's got his spurs on the heels of his boots
            A                  G
He's at the point of no return
E                    G
Climbin' over that shoot gate
A                        G
He settles down inside
E                  G
The tension's risin'
But he can't wait
           A
until they turn that bull outside
[Chorus]
C         D         E
He's addicted to danger
C            D          E
Ruled by passion and pride
    C        D               E
To pain and fear he's no stranger
         C                  D
But his lust needs to be satisfied
C            D         E
Hooked on an 8 second ride
A                      E
Hooked on an 8 second ride
A                      E
Hooked on an 8 second ride
