verse 1 

D                       E         Esus4            D 
Well the bus is pulling out and I guess I'd better go 
  Esus4                                           A 
Before I make a grave mistake and let my feelings show 
D                 E       Esus4           D 
And twenty miles away she waits alone for me 
    Esus4                                      Asus4 
But when I try to picture her you're the one I see 



        E          D               A     E 
And in another situation I could put up a fight 
    Esus4          Asus4      D 
But you will be my downfall tonight 


(Intro variation 1) 

verse 2 

D                      E     Esus4          D 
So the night is coming down, drowning us in blue 
    Esus4                                                 A 
And it all points towards the things we know we shouldn't do 
D                E         Esus4           D 
And as I look at you and I fall under your spell 
       Esus4                                           Asus4 
Well I know I should be thinking of her lying there herself 




         E              D 
And when faced with temptation 
                     A          E 
You know a man should stand and fight 
    Esus4          Asus4      D 
But you will be my downfall tonight 


(Intro variation 2) 


Middle 8 

      Bm             Asus4 
Be my downfall, be my great regret, 
       Esus4             Asus4 
Be the one girl that I'll never forget 
Esus4                                  A      D 
     Be my undoing, be my slow road to ruin tonight 


(Intro variation 3) 


      Bm             Asus4 
Be my downfall, be my great regret, 
       Esus4             Asus4 
Be the one girl that I'll never forget 
Esus4                                  A      D 
     Be my undoing, be my slow road to ruin tonight 


Outro 

D                     E           Esus4              D 
So the bus is pulling out and I'm grounded here with you 
      Esus4                                                A 
And I want to say the sweet things babe I've always wanted to 
   E               D                    A      E 
So tell me now the tail-lights have gone out of sight 
     Esus4           Asus4               D 
Baby won't you be my downfall once again tonight
