In the beginning, the strings play a short melody and since I figured this song out on piano and can't play guitar or write tabs, here are the notes. These first five are played in quick succession: G A B D E Then: B G And finally: A G F# E. You can play the chords from the chorus (C, Em, D, C7) under this if you listen to the intro and figure it out. G D Feet don't fail me now G D Take me to the finish line C Em All my heart, it breaks every step that I take D But I'm hoping that the gates,
They'll tell me that you're mine G D Walking through the city streets G D Is it by mistake or design' C Em I feel so alone on a Friday night D Can you make it feel like home, if I tell you you're mine It's like I told you honey C Em Don't make me sad, don't make me cry D C7 Sometimes love is not enough when the road gets tough I don't know why C Em Keep making me laugh, Let's go get high D Road's long, we carry on C7 Try to have fun in the meantime C Em Come and take a walk on the wild side D Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain C7 You like your girls insane C Em Choose your last words D This is the last time C7 Cause you and I, we were born to die G D Lost but now I am found G D I can see but once I was blind C Em I was so confused as a little child D Tried to take what I could get Scared that I couldn't find All the answers, honey C Em Don't make me sad, don't make me cry D C7 Sometimes love is not enough when the road gets tough I don't know why C Em Keep making me laugh, Let's go get high D Road's long, we carry on C7 Try to have fun in the meantime C Em Come and take a walk on the wild side D Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain C7 You like your girls insane C Em Choose your last words, D This is the last time Cause you and I C7 We were born to die C Em We were born to die D C7 We were born to die C Em Come and take a walk on the wild side D Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain C7 You like your girls insane C Em Don't make me sad, don't make me cry D C7 Sometimes love is not enough when the road gets tough I don't know why C Em Keep making me laugh, Let's go get high D Road's long, we carry on C7 Try to have fun in the meantime C Em Come and take a walk on the wild side D Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain C7 You like your girls insane C Em Choose your last words, D This is the last time Cause you and I C7 We were born to die We were born to die We were born to die
