Am G F

Two young cops handing out a beating

C E

Know how to hurt and leave no mark

Am G F Am

Down in the half-lit bar of the hotel

Am G F D Dsus2 D

There's a call for the last round of the day

Dm C

Push back the stool, take that elevator ride

(tacet) G(III)(xx5433) Am

Fall in bed and kick my shoes away

F D

Kick my shoes away, kick my shoes away

(tacet) G(III) Am

Rocks on the road.
