[INTRO]
    A             D(add9)    E
You take off from work a bit early,
    A            D(add9)     E
The boss doesn't care if you stay.
    A              D(add9)    E  
The guard with the key has to 
         A
check your ID,
         D(add9)      E         A
But he'd just as soon blow you away.

    A                 D(add9)      
The cops have stopped ten miles of 
E
traffic,
        A         D(add9)   E
They're sorry for all the delay.
   A         D(add9)         E   
No need for alarm as they're 
         A
waving their arms,
           D(add9)      E      
But they'd just as soon blow you 
   A
away.

A          D(add9)      E
Two pretty blondes in a Porsche,
      A            D(add9)   E
Their bumper says 'We Love L.A.'
     A           D(add9)          
They look pretty fair but they're 
E         A
crazy out there,
       D(add9)      E         A
They'd just as soon blow you away.

    A           D(add9)    E
You got in some trouble in high 
school,
        A           D(add9)   E
But you feel like a new man today.

    A           D(add9)      E   
You keep to yourself because 
       A
anyone else.
      D(add9)      E         A
Would just as soon blow you away.

       A           D(add9)    
You're standin' in front of the 
       E
teller,
      A            D(add9)     E
She's countin' out all of your pay.
        A            D(add9)
There's twenties and ones and 
          E                 A
there's guards with their guns,
           D(add9)      E      
And they'd just as soon blow you 
   A
away.

    A          D(add9)    E
And one old ex-con at the station,
      A            D(add9)     E
Fixes flats in the back of the bay.
   A            D(add9)      E   
He winks and he jokes and he 
      A
borrows a smoke,
         D(add9)      E         A
But he'd just as soon blow you away.

    A            D(add9)     E
You like the new girl at the hotel,
    A               D(add9)    E
She drops your room key in the tray.
A             D(add9)       
No words will pass through the 
   E            A
bullet-proof glass,
             D(add9)      E       
'Cause she'd just as soon blow you
  A
 away.

[INSTRUMENTAL]
    A            D(add9)    
You climb up the stairs every 
  E
evening,
        A           D(add9)    E
To your room right above the cafe.
      A             D(add9)       
There ain't much mystique but you 
E           A
pay every week,
             D(add9)      E       
Cause they'd just as soon blow you
  A
 away.

        A            D(add9)      
And you turn out the light that 
  E
you read by,
    A                D(add9)    E
You pray that you're one of the few.
            A           D(add9)   
When you're in with the Lord 
   E          A
there's just one reward,
           D(add9)      E         
And they'd just as soon make it 
   A
come true.

    A           D(add9)      E
The mattress is mildewed and lumpy,
        A          D(add9)         
But you fall fast asleep where you 
E
lay.
A         D(add9)         E     
Under the lump there's a twenty 
      A
gauge pump,
             D(add9)      E       
Cause they'd just as soon blow you
  A
 away.
