Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Riff

Built on D chord)

Intro

(RIFF) x2

 The devil owns a hill in my town

 Pulls you fast as you're riding down

 And at the bottom there's a cop in a church parking lot

 I got stopped and wondered why

 My surroundings can't choose sides

 But I can't rightly get mad 'cos neither can I

 Neither can I

 I...

I can't choose sides

(RIFF) x2

 Lately I've been getting bruised

 By love I can't afford to lose

 And I can't say that I like it, but what else am I supposed to do?

 I've learned this trick, you hand me a noose

 And I will craft you an excuse

 And I'll deliver it direct to the tip of your tongue

 In place of "I'm sorry"

 "I'm sorry"

Let's not say it if nobody is

(RIFF) x4

Driving last week we nearly died

 And nothing flashed before my eyes

 But I think I spilled something on your leather seats

 And I'm sorry about that

 I'm sorry about that

I'll pay for it.

(RIFF)
