Crossroads

C                            Am
I was rollin', I was flyin' high
            C                      
cards were fallin', from out of the
  Am
 sky
          F                  Am
I was way up, on top of the game
                    F       G     
I could see like an eagle, hold my
               Am
 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

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 NEED

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

now I know some people, who sold 
                    Am
their souls to the devil
                       F        G 
and they don't sound nothin', like
         Am
