Take it or leave it, I've heard it been said
E B A B
All this Spring fever's just way over my head
A G#m A B
Stealing my moments, taking up all my time
A B A E
It's playing Russian Roulette with my mind
A B A E
E B A E
It's none of my business baby, just what's going on
E B A B
I'm not going to wait till somebody throw me a bone
A G#m A B
I'm way out on a limb now, and nothing seems to rhyme
A B A E
It's playing Russian Roulette with my mind
A B A E
E B A E
I think that you've caught on, that you've been used and all
E B A B
I'm going down New Orleans, I've got to see Dr. John
A G#m A B
Got my mojo working everything will be fine
A B A E
Stop playing Russian Roulette with my mind
A B A E
E B A E
It's not easy baby when everything starts getting out of control
E B A B
Hang on to your hat now, hang on to your soul
A G#m A B
Don't worry baby, I wanna throw you the line
A B A E
They're playing Russian Roulette with your mind
A B A E
E B A E
Too many hustlers, I've been here before
E B A B
None of them really know just who that you are
A G#m A B
Everything gets contracted and space gets confined
A B A E
They're playing Russian Roulette with your mind
A B A E
A B
They're playing Russian Roulette
A B
They're playing Russian Roulette
A B A E
They're playing Russian Roulette with your mind
A B
They're playing Russian Roulette
A B
They're playing Russian Roulette
A B A E
They're playing Russian Roulette with your mind
