Life In The Fast Lane - Eagles

[Intro]
[A] [G] [A] [G]

[Verse 1]
He was a hard headed [A]man, he was brutally [G]handsome,[G]
[A] and she was terminally[G] pretty.[A][G]
[A] She held him up, and [G]he held her for [A]ransom[G]
in the heart [A]of the cold, [G]cold city.[A][G]
He had a nasty [D]reputation as a cruel dude,
they said [A]he was ruthless, they said he was crude,
they had one [E7]thing in common, they were good in bed.
She'd say, "[D]Faster, faster, the lights are turnin' red!"
[A] Life in the fast [G]lane, surely [A]make you lose your mind.[G]
[A] [G] [A] [G]

Instrumental:
[A] - [G] (4x)
Life in the fast lane, mm.

[Verse 2]
Eager [A]for action [G]and hot for the [A]game,[G]
the [A]coming attraction, [G]the drop of a name.[A][G]
They knew all the [A]right people, they [G]took all the right pills,[G]
they threw outrageous [A]parties, they [G]paid heavily bills.[G]
There were lines [D]on the mirror, lines on her face,
she pretended [A]not to notice, she was caught up in the race.
Out [E7]every evening until it was light,
he was too [D]tired to make it, she was too tired to fight about it.

|[Chorus]
|[A] Life in the fast [G]lane, surely [A]make you lose your mind.[G]
|[A] Life in the fast [G]lane, mm.[A][G]
|[A] Life in the fast[G] lane, everyth[A]ing all the time[G].
|[A] Life in the fast [G]lane, uh huh.[A][G]

Instrumental:
[E7] [G] [E7] [G] [A]

[Verse 3]
Blowin' [A]and burnin', [G]blinded by [A]thirst,[G]
they didn'[A]t see the stop sign, t[G]ook a turn for the wors[A]t.[G]
She said, "Listen, baby, [G]you can hear the engine ring,[G]
We've been up and [A]down this highway,[G]
haven't seen a [A]goddam thing."[G]
He said, "[D]Call the doctor, I think I'm gonna crash.”
The [A]doctor says he's coming, but you gotta pay him cash."
They went rushin' [E7]down that freeway, messed around and got lost,
[D] they didn't care they were just dying to get off.

Outro:
[A] Life in the fast lane.[G]
[F] Life in the fast lane.[D][A]
