Doug Aldrich [Guitar]

Here I sit
A broken hearted man
Lady Luck
Dealt me a losing hand

So what's a man like me to do
I'm still a fool in love with you

I gave you
All the love I had to give
And you took away my reason
Left to live

I feel I'm running out of time
And I just wanna make you mine

Take me home tonight
Make me feel alright

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind

I gambled with my heart
And paid the price
I threw it all away
On a roll of the dice

I tried to play the King of Hearts
Now, I'm the Joker
Torn apart

Take me home tonight
Make me feel alright

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck

Drive me out of my mind

So here I sit
A broken hearted man
Lady Luck
Dealt me a losing hand

So what's a man like me to do
I'm still a fool in love with you

Take me home tonight
Make me feel alright

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind

All out of luck
All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind

Remember when you only needed no one
Every day's tomorrow
And it's all right
No confessions - not for you
Forget the things you've done
It's what you'll do

The first time you're suspicious
What's that gliding down
Along comes a spider

Suddenly the world has no more changes
You've run with an evil woman
So it's all right
No more strangers' candy lies
The light is so much better for your eyes

Now I'm not superstitious
But every time you've tried


Along comes a spider

Don't ask why - it's the long way around
Just go wild

Why do we believe in conversation
We never seem to listen
We only hear

Now you don't need permission
But don't get caught next time
Along comes a spider
A spider
A spider
Inside her

Someone had a dream
Never been to London
Never in a limousine

Something made him go
Could it be the voices
Coming from the radio

But somewhere down the line
The happiness you'll find
Will crash into a wall
Just before the fall

Someone joined the band
But he never heard the music
Couldn't really understand
No, no no

Don't know what they mean
Where's my picture
Shining from a magazine

But somewhere down the line


He'll quickly glance behind
Then smash into a wall
Before the fall

Someone ran so fast
When he saw the future
He was sure that it was just the past

Someone had a dream
Only this one ended lost
Inside the old machine

And somewhere down the line
They'll say that his is mine
And all that's left is time
Time to fall and stumble, ah

I'm all right - I'm crossing over
I just shot the sun
One more night - black as heaven
So no-one saw the gun

Running with monsters in shadows
And monsters always know
It's better in the dark

Oh, she's all right - tall and handsome
If the lights are down
Gone by dawn - takes no chances
Might come back around

Clutching to monsters in shadows
And monsters always know
It's better in the dark



I'm all right - I'm crossing over
I can disappear - gone

Clutching to monsters in shadows
And monsters always know
It's better in the dark
Better in the dark
I just shot the sun

Tired of living in the black and white?
Where fools can tell you that you're never right
I know a place where the film's in color
Just step inside of yourself
Here's a place in the front row
So on with the show

The same old shadow on the run
That's no shadow, it's your shadow's son

I know a place where the pools got water
And you don't need to know how to swim
Here's the key to the back door
Do you want more
Do you need more?

Same old rhythm to the same old rhyme
The same old clock - same old time



There's a place where the grass is greener
And you can shake, rattle and roll
Here's the key to the front door
Do you want more
Will you need more?

Tired of living in the black and white
Where no-one's wrong and you're never right
Same old steps to the same old dance
Just one more reason - one more chance
Oh

You've got my love
To keep you warm
Give you shelter
From the storm
Anytime you need
Thro' the long
And lonely night
You've got me
To hold you tight
My love is guaranteed

You're everything I've waited for
Now, I don't have to look no more

Take me as I am
I'll do the best I can
For your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand
When I say
It's easier said than done

Sometimes I swim
Against the tide
But, when I know
You're by my side
There ain't nothing I can't do
Baby, my heart's an open book
Anytime you want to look
Cos' it's written just for you

You're everything I've waited for
Now I don't have to look no more
Take me as I am
I'll do the best I can
For your love
But, it's easier said than done
Take me by the hand

Try to understand
When I say
It's easier said than done

You're everything I've waited for
Now, I don't have to look no more
You're everything I want you to be
Baby, Baby won't you stay with me

Take me as I am
I'll do the best I can
For your love
But, it's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand
When I say
It's easier said than done

Easier said than done

There's a cold wind blowing
Across my heart
Feels like forever
Since we've been apart
It's so hard, Baby
I don't know where to begin

I've been so lucky
In this life of mine
The best of both worlds
Most of the time
But, now I know
It's time for me to go

Fare thee well
I'll soon be gone
Fare thee well
Back where I belong

We had our moments
Our days in the sun
But, now it's time
I should be moving on
But, you'll be in my heart
Wherever I go

Fare thee well
I'll soon be gone
Fare thee well
Back where I belong

I'm on my way
I'm going home
My bags are packed
And I'm ready to roll
I'm going home
Don't you cry
Let's have a drink
Before we say goodbye

I'm going home
Going home

All the love we've shared for years
Enough to make a heart break
All the joy and all the tears
Take me back where I belong

Fare thee well
I'll soon be gone
Fare thee well
Back where I belong

I'm going home
Going home

I'm on my way
I'm going home
My bags are packed
And I'm ready to roll
I'm going home
Don't you cry
Let's have a drink
Before we say goodbye

I'm on my way
I'm going home
My bags are packed
And I'm ready to roll
I'm going home
Don't you cry
Let's have a drink
Before we say goodbye

I'm going home
Going home

Though you've decided that our love is wrong
And think that we should part
It seems as though I have loved you so long
You'll always be in my heart.

Is it a sin
Is it a crime
Loving you dear like I do
If it's a crime then I'm guilty
Guilty of loving you.

Maybe I'm wrong dreaming of you
Dreaming the lonely night through
If it's a crime then I'm guilty
Guilty of dreaming of you

What can I do
What can I say
After I've taken the blame?
You say we're through
You'll go your way
But I'll always feel just the same.

Maybe I'm right
Maybe I'm wrong
Loving you dear like I do
If it's a crime then I'm guilty
Guilty of loving you.

Silence - we hunt for the queen
Sign of the cross
And pray in-between

Look by the light of the day
She's hiding till dark
Waiting to play hey-hey

Something's taken a child
And it all must end
Time to be killing the dragon again

Silence - we'll hunt for the lord
He takes crimson and gold
Gave ice to the cold

Oh to be never afraid
Of wolves at the door
Howling for more



More's been empty for years
And it all must end
Time to be killing the dragon again

Kneel and behold your new king
Digital dreams
And wonderful things to tease you

Small gods with electrical hearts
And it all will end
Time to be killing the dragon

Something in you smile
Was so inviting
Something in your eyes
Told me to stay
Something in your touch
Electrified me
Completing me
In every single way

Now I realize
As I look in your eyes
This must be love

Baby try to understand

My heart is in your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free

Set you free

Every time
I think about you Baby
Every time
I see your smiling face
Every time
I fell your loving arms
Around me
Guilty pleasures
Take up all
My time and space

Now I realize
As I look in your eyes
This must be love

Baby try to understand
My heart is in your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free

Set you free
Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free

Set you free

Something in you smile
Was so inviting
Something in your eyes
Told me to stay
Something in your touch
Electrified me
Completing me
In every single way

Now I realize
As I look in your eyes
This must be love

Baby try to understand

My heart is in your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free

Set you free

Every time
I think about you Baby
Every time
I see your smiling face
Every time
I fell your loving arms
Around me
Guilty pleasures
Take up all
My time and space

Now I realize
As I look in your eyes
This must be love

Baby try to understand
My heart is in your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free

Set you free
Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free

Set you free
