THE BUG (by Mark Knopfler; recorded by Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-------------------------------------------------------------

[Each chord is one measure, except two chords joined by a hyphen

are one measure _total_.]
D7 D7 D7 D7 D7 D7 D7 D7

[intro]
D7 D7 D7 D7
Well it's a strange old game, you learn it slow
D7 D7 D7 D7
One step forward and it's back you go
D7 D7 D7 D7
You're standing on the throttle, you're standing on the brake
D7 D7
In the groove till you make a mistake
D7 D7 D7 G7
Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug
D7 D7 D7 C - G
Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're just a fool in love
D7 D7 D7 G7
Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger baby, sometimes you're the ball
D7 D7 D7 C - G
Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're gonna lose it all

You gotta know happy, you gotta know glad

Because you're gonna know lonely and you're gonna know sad

When you're rippin' and a-ridin' and you're coming on strong

You start slippin' and a-slidin' and it all goes wrong

Because sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug

Sometimes it all falls together baby, sometimes you're a fool in love

Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger baby, sometimes you're the ball

Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're gonna lose it all
A7 A7(sus4) A7 D7 A7 A7 A7 C - G D7 D7 D7 D7

[guitar solo]

One day you got the glory, and then you got none

One day you're a diamond, and then you're a stone

Everything can change in the blink of an eye
