[Intro 1]
[Am][F][G][Am]
[Am][F][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
[G]Johnny saw her riding
on a [F]streetcar named Desire
His fate was [G]sealed
[G]She could see him coming
like a [F]hundred other liars
It was no big [G]deal
[G]Rosa had a lover on the [F]shady side of town
Tito, he was king of the [G]streets
[G]She was his possession
like a [F]jewel on his crown
Johnny better run, better run
Better hide [G]your heart,

[Chorus 1]
[Am]better hold on tight[F]
Say your [G]prayers
'cause there's trouble to[Am]night
When pride and [Am]love battle with de[F]sire
Better hide your [G]heart
'cause you're playing with [Am]fire

[Interlude 1]
Ah, ah, ah, [Am]ah, hey, hey, [F]hey
Doo, doo, doo, [G]doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, [Am]doo
Ah, ah, ah, [Am]ah, hey, hey, [F]hey
Doo, doo, doo, [G]doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, [Am]doo

[Verse 2]
[G]The ride was over,
but the [F]story doesn't end
He took her [G]heart
She [G]looked him in the eye
and said they [F]couldn't meet again
You could see the trouble [G]start
[G]The word went out
that Rosa's [F]messin' with someone
It was on the [G]street
[G]Tito looked for Johnny
with a [F]vengeance and a gun
Johnny better run, better run
Better hide [G]your heart,

[Chorus 2]
[Am]better hold on tight[F]
Say your [G]prayers
'cause there's trouble to[Am]night
When pride and [Am]love battle with de[F]sire
Hide your [G]heart
'cause you're playing with [Am]fire

[Bridge 1]
[G]Johnny's holdin' Rosa on a [F]rooftop in the night
As time stood [G]still
They [G]couldn't hear him coming
till he [F]had 'em both in sight
You [C]could feel a [G]chill
A [G]shot ran out like thunder
and the [F]blood was on her hands
With nothing [G]won
When [G]someone lies dying,
lovers [F]finally understand
Whoa

[Chorus 3]
Better hide your [Am]heart, better hold on [F]tight
Say your [G]prayers
'cause there's trouble to[Am]night
When pride and [Am]love battle with de[F]sire
Hide your [G]heart
'cause you're playing with [Am]fire
