You can also walk the F to F/E instead of going to the C. 
The F I am playing is not the barre F – it is XX3211 then 
the F/E would be XX2211 (you can mute the 3rd string and 
get away with it). If you do play the C, make sure to hit the 4th
string for the bass instead of the 5th. That will give the same
walkdown effect.

Intro chords:
F  C  Dm twice



        F                          C                    Dm
She was cool, she was hot, she was smokin' a lot at the end of the bar 
        F                      C                      Dm
She had more then one too many buttons undone on that blouse she wore
F                       C                   Dm
Starin' too long at her lost in the Skynyrd song was his first mistake
             F                             C                        Dm
And when she shot him that, "Boy you don't want none of this" look, it was way too late



Chorus:
             F           C                   Dm
She's like a needle to a junky, she's like a whiskey to a drunk 
           F          C                     Dm 
She's like poker to a gambler, she's like a bullet in a gun 
      F                C                 Dm  
She's in his blood, he can't explain the rush when he gets with her 
             F                      C                       Dm
Might be the death of him, but he's addicted, man, he can't quit her 


Well, she'd come to his house and he'd tell her she belonged just with him 
She'd get up, she'd get dressed, take five hundred, no less and then leave again 
He said "Baby, I'll take care of you, can't stand the thought of sharin’ you, with them other guys." 
She laughed and said "Well, maybe you shouldn't call me no more then, baby" and he didn't, that first night


Chorus 

Solo

She's in his blood, he can't explain the rush when he gets with her 
Might be the death of him, but he's addicted, man he can't quit her. 


She was cool, she was hot, she was walkin across the parkin' lot with some other guy 
Well, he was jealous, he was jonsin' and he wound up on the wrong end of a forty-five
