Capo on the 2nd fret, all chords are relative to the capo...
this are NOT the exact chords Gurf plays... he plays chords WITHOUT capo, but I
think it sounds better with capo, so instead of a C he would play D, instead of
Am, Em, instead of F, G and so on. (he plays with barre chords)
C Am
I was rollin', I was flyin' high
C Am
cards were fallin', from out of the sky
F Am
I was way up, on top of the game
F G Am
I could see like an eagle, hold my hand in the flame
I knew I had it, the moment was mine
it was all so clear, so frozen in time
I was about to lay it down, was about to let it fly
when from across the room, somebody caught my eye
Am C Am
YOU CAN FIND A CROSSROADS, MAKE YOU A DEAL
C Am
TAKE A CHANCE, SPIN THE WHEEL
C Am
STRIKE A BARGAIN, FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU NEED
F G Am
BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET CUT, AND YOU'RE GONNA BLEED
I got a little nervous, I hedged my bet
I started thinkin', 'bout things that hadn't happened yet
I saw the instant, I lost my edge
tryin' to balance, out on the ledge
YOU CAN FIND A CROSSROADS, MAKE YOU A DEAL
TAKE A CHANCE, SPIN THE WHEEL
STRIKE A BARGAIN, FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU NEED
BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET CUT, AND YOU'RE GONNA BLEED
he slid on in, slipped me a name
it didn't mean nothin' but I knew just the same
he had what I wanted, made it sound right
said I knew where to meet him, just before midnight
YOU CAN FIND A CROSSROADS, MAKE YOU A DEAL
TAKE A CHANCE, SPIN THE WHEEL
STRIKE A BARGAIN, FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU NEED
BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET CUT, AND YOU'RE GONNA BLEED
Am C Am
now I know some people, who sold their souls to the devil
F G Am
and they don't sound nothin', like Robert Johnson
its an easy but very nice song, so have fun playing it!
