G          C         F              C  G 
I'm taken aback but still I let it ride 
G          C                   F     C  G 
No sudden movements I ease my hand real slow 
G                       C                   F       C    G 
Then my hands are like lightning And the bullets start to fly 
G                      C                 F       C     G 
I was almost in the clear too with just inches left to go 
 
Chorus
G                                      C   G 
And if it's the fool who likes to rush in 
G                                     C   G 
And if it's the angel who never does try 
G                                C   G 
And if it's me who will lose or win 
          Am                        F 
Then I'll make my best guess and I won't care why 
G                                C   G 
C'mon and get me you twist of fate 
G                                C   G 
I'm standing right here Mr. Destiny 
G                                    C   G 
If you want to talk well then I'll relate 
        Am                      F 
If you don't so what cause you don't scare me

Verse
G                      C         F        C       G 
Time comes when I'm older and a new kid hits the street 
G                             C 
They'll say he's fast and he looks for me 
       F         C     G 
And he says I'm going down 
G                      C             F     C          G 
And though I try to avoid this man eventually we'll meet 
G                      C             F     C          G 
He draws faster than I can see and knocks me to the ground 
 
Chorus

And if it's me who will lose or win

So I'm lying in the street there 
          G                 D 
And the lights are getting dim 
C                               Bm 
Preacher man comes and tells me 
G                     D 
Repent it's time to pray 
Am 
You can lose only just once 
C                    D 
But you never always win 
      Am                              C 
I’ll smile at him with my last words 
    G                 D 
And this is what I'll say
