Chris De Burgh - Don't Look Back
 
  
INTRO: Em C Em D 
 
Em                             G
Oh, there is a place where the wild men go,
          D                        C
When it's late at night and on the radio,
Em                         G
They're telling everybody, stay at home,
D                       C
It's no time for you to be alone,
                     B
It is a place on the edge of town,
     Em           D         C
Just shining in a hell-fire light (they're waiting),
Em                   D
And if you're there, keep going on,
        C              B
They're waiting deep inside___
 
I'm telling you...
 
 
CHORUS:
Em
Don't look back
             C
Women in the red and black,
    Em
D-D-Don't look back
                        D
They're gonna take your heart away,
                 Em
I'm telling you, don't look back
             C
Women in the red and black,
    Em
D-D-Don't look back
                         D
They're gonna steal your heart away,
                    Em
I should have known better
 
 
                         G
Well, Jimmy Pellin was a friend of mine,
       D                      C
But he went out there one too many times,
Em                         G
I saw him running down the railroad track,
      D                         C
And I tell you boys, he ain't a-coming back,
                           B
The early morning is their favourite time,
        Em       D            C
To find somebody out on their own (they're waiting),
Em                      D
They're waving arms and flashing lights,
C                   B
Standing out on the road___

I'm telling you...
 
 
CHORUS:
Em
Don't look back
             C
Women in the red and black,
    Em
D-D-Don't look back
                        D
They're gonna take your heart away,
                    Em
I should have known better,
 
I should have known better
 
 
SAX Break: Em G D C Em G D C
 
 
                           B
So, if you're going to the edge of town,
      Em        D         C
Don't lose in a hell-fire light, (they're waiting)
Em                     D
And if you're passing, keep going on,
        C               B
They're waiting there tonight
 
I'm begging you....

I should have known better (don't look back),

Should have known better (don't look back),

I should have known better (don't look back),
D                 Em                 C
Should have known better (don't look back),
  D                 Em
I should have known better.
