Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Sixteen and a son of a bitch!

Got a gun and a strychnine twist

Little girl on the graveyard shift

Out of control and doesn't give a shit

I don't wanna go down. I don't wanna go down.

I don't wanna go down. I don't wanna go down.

At the same time, this is sung:

Gonna lose control!

So stop, drop, and roll.

[Intro chords again]

So, baby-doll, don't you lose your touch.

You take it all cause it's never gonna take too much.

[Intro chords again]

Dirty mouth and the look of death.

My tequila coming' from your breath.

Your lips are like a cherry bomb with teeth

Losing control, break my sanity.

Chorus

So, baby-doll, don't you lose your touch.

You take it all cause you're never gonna take too much.

Solo

I don't wanna go down. I don't wanna go down.

I don't wanna go down. I don't wanna go down.

Gonna lose control!

So stop, drop, and roll.

So, baby-doll, don't you lose your touch.

You take it all 'cause you're never gonna take too...

Losing control and you lose your touch.

You take it all, 'cause you're never gonna take too much.

2. Mother Mary

Intro

Do you want to elope tonight

Getting lost in the shadows

All dressed up like a switchblade knife

Let's hang in love from the gallows

Or we can take a walk around the lake

There's a garden in the park there

Under the stars next to the fireside

Anywhere is better than here

Oh Mother Mary, take my hand

I'll be a saint, I'll be your man

I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care ...

Oh Mother Mary, take my hand.

Take a ride on the midnight train

We'll fall asleep at the station

Too much wine, driving me insane

And then we'll miss our destination

Oh well, too bad, who cares, it's all right.

As long as we will stick together

In hell we’ll rain a rose (could be arrows) of sunshine

We'll watch it rise and shine forever

Oh Mother Mary, take my hand

I'll be a saint, I'll be your man

I'll do most anything, 'cause I don't care ...

Oh Mother Mary, take my hand.

3. Ruby Room

Intro

Fourteenth street, booze and swallow

I'm gonna drown my sorrow.

Dirty floors and sticky tables.

For the willing and the able.

All the zombies on a hot Friday night.

Going down to the Ruby Room.

I'm gonna meet my doom.

By the name of Rosie May.

She's the night pick of the day, yeah.

Lucky Strike and I will travel.

As a Pabst Blue Ribbon unravels.

Gonna drink my hard earned pay.

'Cause it doesn't matter anyway, yeah.

Seeing double on a one last one night stand.

Goin' down to the Ruby Room.

I'm gonna meet my doom.

By the name of Rosie May.

She's the midnight pick of the day, yeah!

Going down to the Ruby Room.

Going down to the Ruby Room.

I'm gonna meet my doom.

By the name of Rosie May.

She's the midnight pick of the day, yeah, yeah!

Going down to the Ruby Room.

Going down to the Ruby Room.

4. Red Tide

Intro

Repeat intro from the bar lines. This is repeated through the verse's first two lines

I have written "F")and the last line. The third line is played the same, but on the A

Mary's in her hour of darkness.

Everything she feels is hopeless.

Disconnected from the dancehall.

Tripping on her heart of purple.

Is this passion or...

Or your red tide?

Faces of her bleak expression.

Taking on her town's impression.

Tis' the season's witching hour.

As the summer loses power.

Is this passion or...

Or your red tide?

Solo

Mary's breaking your kiss goodnight.

This is where her heart will not die.

Is this passion or...

Or your red tide?

5. Highway 1

I'm on a midnight death trip.

I'm on a mission from God.

A stolen car and a death wish.

To hell on Highway 1

Four on the floor, a hundred miles per hour.

I'm gonna fly til the tires can't fly no more.

I've got my blues, gonna make a racket.

Nothing to lose but this straight jacket on too tight.

As the wind comes off the ocean.

And my hair is combed just right.

I'm in a stolen locomotion.

Straight out of 1965.

So, pass the bottle, a hundred miles per hour.

I'm gonna fly 'til the tires can't fly no more.

'mon!

I've got my friends and a shark skin jacket.

Nothing to lose, gonna live it up 'til I die.

Well, on the night before the supper.

And I'm gonna smash the glass just right.

So, give me one good dose of thunder.

Before I fall on my ass tonight.

Four on the floor, a hundred miles per hour.

I'm gonna fly 'til the tires can't fly no more.

'mon!

I've got my blues, gonna make a racket.

Nothing to lose but this straight jacket on too tight.
