Verse 1
G Csus2
Seems the further from town I go
Dsus2 Csus2 G
The more I hate this place
G Csus2
He's got leather and big tattoos
Dsus2 Em
Scars all over his face
C
And I wonder if he ever has cried
Cm
Cause he couldn't get a date for the prom
Chorus
G Em Csus2 G
He's got his arm around every man's dream
G Em Csus2 Dsus2
Crumbs in his beard from the seafood special
G Em C Cm
Oh can't you see my world is falling apart
G Dsus2 Csus2
Baby please leave the biker, leave the biker
G
Break his heart
G Dsus2 Csus2
Baby please leave the biker, leave the biker
G
Break his heart
Verse 2
G Csus2
Now his friend leans over and says
Dsus2 Csus2 G
Looks like we got us a fag
G Csus2
I wonder if that guy's read one word
Dsus2 Em
That wasn't in a porno mag
C
And I wonder if he ever has cried
Cm
Cause his kitten got run over and died
G Em Csus2 G
He's got his arm around every man's dream
G Em Csus2 Dsus2
Crumbs in his beard from the seafood special
G Em C Cm
Oh can't you see my world is falling apart
G Dsus2 Csus2
Baby please leave the biker, leave the biker
G
Break his heart
G Dsus2 Csus2
Baby please leave the biker, leave the biker
G
Break his heart
Break
