[Verse 1]
Am
 This my last hand,
                      G
 feel like I've been backed in

I don't know the odds,
but I bet it all
D6
 Pack the Louie for the road,
          C
 keep it moving in the cold

It ain't right, but I never fold
Am                         G
 Hitting traffic on a bad road

You the one I go to bat for
D6
 You can feel it in the keys
C
I don't even need the beat when
I'm singing out my last song
Am                           G
 If you rеally wanna let it go

'Cause I don't know what
I've been fighting for
D6
 You say my hеart is
                C
 in the wrong place

Fuck with you the long way,
tell me what you wanna know
Am                         G
 If there ever was a dark time

You'd be fading in the bright light
D6                         C
 If you make it to the morning

I'll be in the doorway,
waiting till the time right

[Chorus]
Am                        G
 Someday I'ma find my way out

For the time, I'ma wait for you
D6                               C
 I know what they all wanna say now

Chalk it up to my wasted youth
Am
 I'd be lying if I said
               G
 I never wanted one

Just a lover that can love me,
baby, one-on-one
D6
 If it's all that you want,
                   C
 then it's all or none
That's the game that we play,
what you running for?

[Post-Chorus]
Am  G
 You
                   D6      C
Tie me up in your pain, oh, you

[Verse 2]
Am                             G
 No hands left, I don't plan shit

Know it's real when she
talk to me in Spanish
D6
 Know the deal, you the one
               C
 I gotta hang with

I could do the math, she
doesn't even share the blanket
Am
 Oh, you playing undercover,
                   G
 what you waiting for?
See the way you wanna play it,
I can play it long
D6
 If there's something that
                          C
 I owe you, I can pay in full

You ain't gotta say it 'cause
the silence gonna say it all
       Am
It's clear, feel it in the air
         G
On that young Jovi,
I be livin' on a prayer
                 D6
Nothing I could do,
running out of room
            C
You either say it now or
you bring it to the tomb
                     Am
If there's nothing wrong,
why there's something in the way?
         G
Save it for the winter
if the summer gonna fade
                      D6
Swear that I've been different,
but you know that I'm the same
              C
You ain't even gotta say it
'cause you know that I'ma wait

[Pre-Chorus]
   Am  G
For you
                   D6      C
Tie me up in your pain, oh, you

[Chorus]
Am
 Someday I'ma find my way out
G
 For the time, I'ma wait for you
D6
 I know what they all wanna say now
C
 Chalk it up to my wasted youth
Am
 I'd be lying if I said
 I never wanted one
G
 Just a lover that can love me,
 baby, one-on-one
D6
 If it's all that you want,
 then it's all or none
C
 That's the game that we play,
 what you running for?

[Post-Chorus]
Am  G
 You
                   D6   C
Tie me up in your pain, oh, you
