[Cbords]:
[Verse 1]
He was a [E]hard headed man. He was brutally handsome, she was
terminally pretty. She held him up, and he held her for ransom in the
heart of the cold, cold city. He had a na[A7]sty reputation as a cruel dude.
They said[E] he was ruthless; they said he was crude. They had one[B7] thing
in common; they were good in bed. She'd say,[A7] "Faster, faster. The lights
are turnin' red."
[Cborus]
[E]Life in the fast l[E]ane surely makes you lose y[E]our mind. Life in the
fast lane, y[E]eah.
Are you with me so far?
[Verse 2]
[E]Eager for action and hot for the game, the coming attraction, the drop of a name.
[E]They knew all the right people; they took all the right pills.
[E]They threw outrageous parties; they paid heavily bills.
There were[A7] lines on the mirror, lines on her face. She pre[E]tended not
to notice; she was caught up in the race. [B7]Out every evening until it
was light, he wa[A7]s too tired to make it; she was too tired to fight
about it.
[Cborus]
[E]Life in the fast lane; [E]everything all the t[E]ime. Life in the fast lane,
[E]yeah.
[Verse 3]
[E]Blowin' and burnin', blinded by thirst,
[E]they didn't see the stop sign; took a turn for the worst.
[E]She said, "Listen, baby. You can hear the engine ring.
[E]We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen
a goddamn thing." He said, [A7]"Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash.
The[E] doctor says he's coming; but you gotta pay him cash." They went
rus[B7]hin' down that freeway; messed around and got lost.[A7] They didn't
know they were just dying to get off.
[Cborus]
And it was[E] life in the fast lane,[D/E]
[C/E]life in the fast lane. | [A/E]
