Chorus:
F D# Bb
I'm a tough tough game that no one can master
F D# Bb C
I'm a tall tall tale no one believes
F D# Bb
I'm a long dark night with no morning after
C D# F ----> do some changes between D# and F by baring your index finger along
Lucky you the fret and lifting your other fingers, just like you do for the
main riff
F MR F-D#
You get the best of me
MR F-D#
MR F-D#
Brand new day - honeymoon's over

G# G5
'Cause when I hit my stride
Chorus:
I'm a tough tough game that no one can master
I'm a tall tall tale no one believes
I'm a long dark night with no morning after
Lucky you
You get the best of me
You get the best of me
Aaaaaahhh yeah D# F D then solo with MR and F-D#
etc.etc.
I'm a tough tough game that no one can master
I'm a tall tall tale no one believes
I'm a long dark night with no morning after
I'm a thundercloud when you're out at sea
And if you try to run Baby I can run faster
Lucky you
You get the best of me
You get the best of me
You get the best of me
You get the best of me
