Dire Straits - Tunnel Of Love: chords

F         C           Dm
Getting crazy on the waltzers,
F                           C
but it's the life that I choose
G                        F C
Sing about the sixblade sing
                      Dm
about the switchback and a torture tatoo

And I've been riding on a ghost train
Where the cars they scream and slam
And I don't know where I'll be tonight
But I'd always tell you where I am

In a screaming ring of faces
I've seen her standing in the light
She had a ticket for the races, yeah
Just like me she was a victim of the night

I put a hand upon the lever
Said: "Let it rock and let it roll"
I had the one arm bandit fever
There was an arrow through my heart and my soul

Chorus:
                           A#
And the big wheels keep on turning
C     F           A#
neon burning, up above
          F             C
And I am high on the world
Am             Dm               A#
come on take a low ride with me girl.
        Dm            F C Dm F C
On the tunnel of love.

It's just the danger, danger when you're riding at your own risk
She said: "You are the perfect stranger"
She said: "Baby, let's keep it like this"
It's just a cake walk, twisting baby, yeah, step right up and say:
"Hey Mister, give me two, give me two now, 'cos any two can play"

Chorus

                Gm             A#
Well it's been money for muscle another whirligig
Gm              A#
Money for muscle, another girl I dig
Gm             A#
Another hustle, just to make it big,
     C
and rock away rock away

     F                           C
And girl, it looks so pretty to me,
              Dm       A#
just like it always did
 C                         F          A#     C
Like the Spanish city to me, when we were kids.

And girl, it looks so pretty to me,
just like it always did
Like the Spanish city to me, when we were kids.

She took off a silver locket
She said: "Remember me by this"
She put her hand in my pocket
I got a keepsake and a kiss
And in the roar of dust and diesel
I stood and watched her walk away
I could have caught up with her easy enough
But something must have made me stay

Chorus

And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades
Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades
In any shooting gallery where promises are made
To rockaway, rockaway
Rockaway, rockaway
From Cullercoats and Whitley Bay
Out to rockaway

And girl, it looks so pretty to me
Like it always did
Like the Spanish City to me
When we were kids
Girl, it looks so pretty to me
Like it always did
Like the Spanish City to me
When we were kids
