Veronica Lake Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You know she stays right out of reach
Keeps that position, plays the game
I'd like to [D]think
I'll quit [G]playing

[Verse 2]
But the dice roll [G]on
And if the snake eyes shine
I'll chase down the [D]alley's dark
All over [G]again

[Verse 3]
[C]The bent ang[D]els bend my neck
And [C]even[G]tually my [D]mind
My [C]time is short,
[G]why[D] do I spend so muc[C]h time
Searching [D]for...

[Verse 4]
[G]So I take mistakes in stride
I make the stakes go high
Watch [D]this shrinking heart
Break and mend [G]again

[Verse 5]
And I bet, if I [G]could bet it all
I probably would watch the money [D]go
'Til I'm down again
[G][C]

[Verse 6]
The bent [G]angels [D]bend my neck
And [C]eventually [G]my [D]mind
My [C]time is short
[G]Why [D]do I spend so muc[C]h time
Searching [D]for Veronica Lake?

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][D]
[G][D]

[Verse 7]
[C]The bent ang[G]els ben[D]d my neck
And [C]even[G]tually my [D]mind
My [C]time is short,
[G]why[D] do I spend so muc[C]h time
[G]Searching [D]for Veronica Lak[G]e?

[Verse 8]
Where are the [G]mystery girls
Who start a riot with their smiles?
Make you go a [D]mile
For another [G]fight

[Verse 9]
But the dice roll [G]on
And if the snake eyes shine
I'll chase down the [D]alleys dark
All over [G]again

[Verse 10]
[C]The bent ang[D]els bend my neck
And [C]even[G]tually my [D]mind
My [C]time is short,
[G]why[D] do I spend so muc[C]h time
Searching [D]for Veronica Lake?
