Introduction:
D C G/B
When the sun peeks up behind the mountains and casts an orange glow

It don't quite wash out the sight of the neon lights below
D
I've been here three days but I've got to say

It feels more like thirty-five

I keep meaning to learn my lesson
A G
But this happens every time
Repeat Intro
D C G/B
I'm down to my last twenty with nothing much to show

But an empty chair and a desperate prayer for bullets in the hole

When the cards are dealt across the felt
C G/B
These eyes go black and cold
D
My last chip's in the middle

It's too late now to fold

She's a Siren on a cliff's edge

And I'm speeding towards the rocks

Might be headed for disaster
G D
But I can't shut this engine off

Have now faded into truth

She's a devil in the desert
G D
And she's gonna get her due

It's a battleground and this time around I'm settling the score

Turn around and run

But I ain't one for good decisions

When the bad ones are this much fun
G
She's a Siren on a cliff's edge

And I'm speeding towards the rocks

But I can't shut this engine off
D
And the lights and lies of nights gone by
C G/B
Have now faded into truth

She's a devil in the desert
G D
And she's gonna get her due
