1.
Em, D, C, G
He only thought he was going for the thrill of a ride
Em, D, C, G
Wasn't in the plan to be gone for long
Em, D, C, G
But he keeps looking back over his shoulder
Em, D, C, G
He knows that something might go wrong
Em, D, C, G
The ride it ain't smooth that is for sure
Em, D, C, G
Strange mood what is the cure
Em, D, C, G
He's got that feeling of impending doom
Em, D, C, G
Like being trapped in a casket inside a tomb
Ref.
Em, D, C, G
Death defied by will
Like a drug that doesn't kill
Em, D, C, G
Boy you gotta learn what's true
Em, D, C, G
Death defied by will
Like a drug that doesn't kill
Em, D, C, G
The joke is on you
Em, D, C, G
You ought to know better
You ought to know better
2.
He is determined to outsmart this snake
With conviction he will stand his ground
Feeling invincible like death itself
His immortality won't be found
What should he say at his own wake
That he refuses to fulfil his fate
He doesn't know that this is his last drive
On the road we call life
Ref: --//-- --//--
Bridge
Am, Em
Ohhh, Ohhh
Am, Em
Ohhh, Ohhh
Am
Now the time has come
You can't play around
Em
And you ought to know
C
You ought to know better
G
You ought to know better
Ref: --//-- --//--
(In a Live Version, I heard him sing:
"I'm sending My love to You Now
Sending My love to You
I'm sending My love to you now
Ohh ooh ooh" 2x)
