Am                           Dm
In the middle of a gun fight... 
                         C
In the center of a restaurant... 
                E                     Am
They say, "Come with your arms raised high!" 
                               Dm
Well, they're never gonna get me, 
                                 C
Like a bullet through a flock of doves...
             E                Am         Dm 
To wage this war against your faith in me,
     C           E            Am 
Your life...will never be the same. 
        Dm                   C              E
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer...say a prayer! 


[Chorus] 
Am
Now, but I can't 
       Dm
And I don't know 
                                  C     
How we're just two men as God had made us, 
                        E
Well, I can't...well, I can! 
Am
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this 
Dm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish, 
C                    E
I'll kiss your lips again. 


[Verse 2]
     Am                                    
They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost, 
    Dm                                               C
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups (in drag) 
                           E     
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself...am I losing myself?!
      Am 
Well, I miss my mom,
Will they give me the chair, 
   Dm                                            C
Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare;
                           E
Ah, nobody knows...all the trouble I've seen! 


[Chorus]
Am
Now, but I can't 
       Dm
And I don't know 
                                  C     
How we're just two men as God had made us, 
                        E
Well, I can't...well, I can! 
Am
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this 
Dm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish, 
C                    E
I'll kiss your lips again. 


Am      Dm
To your room... 
          C
What they ask of you 
     E                Am       Dm
Will make you want to say, "So long..."
        C 
Well, I don't remember, 
E              Am
Why remember...YOU?! 


Am                                Dm
Do you have the keys to the hotel?! 
                                             C      E
'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire! (FID !!)


Am            Dm
Life is but a dream for the dead,
            C 
And well I, I won't go down by myself, 
                         E
But I'll go down with my friends. 
Am          Dm
Now now now now... (I can't explain)
        C
Now now now... (I can't complain)
         E
Now now, yeah!
Am
Now, now, now, now, now, now!
