verse
The city streets are wet with rain tonight
Taxi drivers swerve from lane to lane
A lonely guitar man playin’ down the hall
Midnight blues comin’ through the walls

I tried to call you on the telephone
I left it off the hook just to hear it ring
You told me you were better off alone
I never knew that tears could stain

Chorus
I’m on the roof and I’m starin’ at the stars
Lookin’ down at all the cars
I can see you
In the window of your favorite corner bar
But to reach you is just too far
And I might as well be on Mars

The city seems so old and grey and beat
It closes in and makes me wanna suffocate
And you just live across the street
But that’s a billion miles away

You’ve turned my world into a dark and lonely place
Like a planet lost in space
My light is fadin'
I’d cross the universe to be right where you are
But I’m right in your backyard
And I might as well be on Mars

Bridge
I might as well be on Mars
You can’t see me
I might as well be the Man on the Moon
You can’t hear me
Oh, can you feel me
So close and yet so far
Baby, I might as well be on Mars

Intro:
Gm – F C,Csus4,C
Gm – F C,Csus4,C

Gm Fsus4 C Csus4,C
Somebody saw you at the station
Gm F C Csus4,C
You had your suitcase in your hand
You didn’t give no information
You walked off with another man

I’m always standing in the shadows, baby
Gm F C,Csus4,C
I watched you give yourself away
Gm F C,Csus4,C
You take them home into your bedroom
You had another busy day

I tried to look the other way and fake it
You push me to the limits
I can’t take it

CHORUS
One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun[(F-C-Gm)]
Red lights, stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when you play with danger
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun
And it shoots to[(Gm)] kill

Gm F C Csus4,C
Someday they’ll put me in a squad card
Gm F C Csus4,C
Someday they’ll throw away the key
Gm F C Csus4,C
But ‘til that day I’ll be a mad dog
Cuz that’s what you taught me to be

You looked into the eyes of men above you
I was the one who really tried to love you

CHORUS
One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun[(F-C-Gm)]
Red lights, stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when you play with danger
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun
And it shoots to[(Gm)] kill

Pull the trigger

(SOLO)

I tried to look the other way and fake it
You push me to the limits
I can’t take it

CHORUS
One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun[(F-C-Gm)]
Red lights, stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when you play with danger
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun

One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun[(F-C-Gm)]
Red lights, stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when you play with danger
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun
