David Allan Coe – Wreckless
Capo 3

D                 C           G
Train of love was comin’ fast
                    D
I close my eyes and hit the gas
                        C
Full speed ahead to her waiting arms
      G                D
I was hypotized by her willing charm
                              C
She was Russin roulette I was dying to play
G                          D
Flirtin’ with danger every step of the way 
               F G D        G F D         F G
I was Wreckless,   Wreckless,   Wreckless
Walkin’ on the wild side.

D                       C
On a two lane road in a one horse town
      G                   D
I was feelin’ lost, I was feelin’ down
                            C
I did not know she meant to be unkind
     G                          D
So I gave her my heart, and she stole my mind
                                 C
The Devil would be waitin’ just around the bend
  G                       D
I knew it would be long until the end
                   F G D        G F D         F G           
And I was Wreckless,   Wreckless,   Wreckless
Walkin’ on the wild side.

    D                         C
The sign on the highway said “Danger Ahead”
      G                               D
I was driving through the land of the living dead
                                 C 
She was taking advantaged of the way I feel
       G                      D
And my hands had a death grip on the wheel
                C
Love of a woman deep inside
    G                D
The only way out was suicide
               F G D        G F D         F G
I was Wreckless,   Wreckless,   Wreckless
Walkin’ on the wild side.

D                    C
Too much whiskey and not enough to eat
      G                         D 
I was too drunk to drive, I was out on my feet
                    C
I put the gun right next to my head
G                      D 
Knew she was lyin’ in another man’s bed
                             C
Why she did me wrong, Lord I could not figure
G                   D
As I stepped on the gas and I pulled the trigger
          F G D         G F D         F G
Wreckless,    Wreckless,    Wreckless
Walkin’ on the wild side.
