G Em
You never had a chance — Did you baby?
G Em
So good looking, so insecure.
G Em
and now you say you can’t remember
G Em
when the lines you drew began to blur. C-Am-C-D
D G
Yeah, When all of this is over C-Am-C-D
D G
should I lose you in the smoke
Em C
I want you to know
C D
You were the one. C-Am-C-D
(chorus)
C G C G
And may my love travel — with you everywhere.
C G
Baby, may my love travel
Am G
with you always.
G Em
Maggie’s still trying to rope a tornado.
G Em
Joe’s in the backyard trying to keep things simple.
G Em G
And the lonely DJ’s digging a ditch trying to keep the flames
Em C-Am-C-D
from the temple.
D G C-Am-C-D
Oh, and if perhaps I lose you
G
in the smoke down the road.
Em C
I want you to know
C D C-Am-C-D
You were the one.
(repeat chorus) Then (guitar solo)
G Em
How about a cheer for all those bad girls?
G Em
And all those boys that play that Rock N Roll.
G Em
They love it like you love Jesus.
G
It does the same thing
Em C-Am-C-D
to their souls.
D G C-Am-C-D G
And when all of this is over — should I lose you in the smoke.
Em C
I want you to know
D C-Am-C-D
you were the one.
(chorus) 2X
Note: I’m not a 100% sure on that 4 step change (C-Am-C-D) but
everything else should be correct.
