Life in the fast lane. Eagles *Intro: Riff on root *Verse 1: [E]He was a hard-headed man, he was brutally handsome, and she was terminally pretty. [E]She held him up, and he held her for ransom in the heart of the cold, cold city. He had a [A7]nasty reputation as a cruel dude, they [E]said he was ruthless, they said he was crude. They had [B7]one thing in common, they were good in bed. She'd say, [A7]faster, faster, the lights are turnin' red. *Chorus: [E]Life in the fast lane, surely make you [G]lose your [A]mind, mmmm.. [E]Life in the fast lane. Everything, all the time Life in the fast lane *Interlude: Vamp on E with solo. (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. They threw outrageous parties, they paid heavenly bills. There were [A7]lines on the mirror, lines on her face, she [E]pretended not to notice, she was caught up in the race. [B7]Out every evening, until it was light, he was [A7]too tired to make it, she was too tired to fight about it. *Chorus: [E]Life in the fast lane, surely make you [G]lose your [A]mind, mmmm.. [E]Life in the fast lane. Everything, all the time Life in the fast lane *Instrumental: [B7] [B7] [A7] [A7] [B7] [B7] [A7] [A7] [E] [E] riff *Verse 3: [E]Blowin' and burnin,' blinded by thirst, they didn't see the stop sign, took a turn for the worse. [E]She said, listen, baby, you can hear the engine ring..we've been up and down this highway, haven't seen a goddam thing. He said, [A7]call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash. The [E]doctor say he's comin', but you gotta pay him cash. They went [B7]rushin' down that freeway, messed around and got lost. [A7]They didn't care, they were just dyin' to get off. And it was.. *Chorus: [E]Life in the fast lane, surely make you [G]lose your [A]mind [E]Life in the fast lane, yeah [E]Life in the fast lane, everything all the time [E]Life in the fast lane, [D]Life in the fast lane.. [Cmaj7]Life in the fast lane.. [A7]Life in the fast lane......... life in the fast lane. *OUTRO: Harmonica or guitar solo on blues progression
