Riff x 2

We can live our lives on this righteous crime

Dsus2             Em7+5 G    Dsus2                Em7+5   G
I got kicked when I was down and a sailor took my girl to town
Dsus2              Em7+5           G         Dsus2    Em7+5    G
then she licked my wounds with the sea dog's salt
Dsus2            Em7+5     G     Dsus2           Em7+5    G
I drank a half a bottle of jack, swore I'd never take you back
Dsus2           Em7+5     G       Dsus2   Em7+5    G
by the bottle's end I was on that phone.

Em7+5        C          Am
What you call compromise I don't understand
Em7+5        C          Am                  A
What you call compromise I don't under------stand

How do you walk away?
How do you walk away?
How do you walk away from a woman that gone and done you wrong?

When it gets right down to the killing time
I know your heart is bad, but it's all I've ever had

(Play a freestyle version of the main riff:)
I got kicked when I was down and a sailor took my girl to town
then she licked my wounds with the sea dog's salt
I drank a half a bottle of jack, swore I'd never take you back
by the bottle's end I was on that phone.

A#            C         A
What you call compromise I don't understand
A#            C         A              C
What you call compromise---I don't understand

D                     F  G
How do you walk away?
D                     F  G
How do you walk away?
D                                      F       G
Oh walk away from a woman that gone and done you wrong?
