Hot Coals

Intro: [Em(VII)] [A(V)]

I saw you leave the bar last night with some fine and dandy man

I heard from one of your buddies that he asked you for your hand.

He asked you for your hand but he don't fit you like a glove

I'd walk over hot coals, just to win your love.

They call me good for nothing, and they call me "worthless jerk"

They call me in the morning when I don't show up for work.

But I don't think they understand, I got better things to do.

I'm walking over hot coals, darling, just for you

I'm walking over hot coals, darling, just for you

[Em(VII)] [A(V)]

To get along in this old world, it takes a cutthroat or a fool

[Em(VII)] [A(V)]

When I'm out of cigarettes, I think the whole thing is so cruel

Ain't no piece of cake life ain't dishin out

Nothing that my heart can't take

Some boys might fix your car and take you out to eat

But some boys might play guitar and sing a song so sweet

But that's all good and proper but it's not really my style.

I'm walking over hot coals, darling, just for you

I'm walking over hot coals, darling, just for you
