[Verse 1]
            C                                     Bb                  C
Well, you think you're sitting pretty but you're sitting on a powder keg
                                                   Bb                   C
Well, you think you're standing steady but you're weak as a matchstick leg
                                               Bb                C
Well, there's a rumble in the city, there's a call out for your head
                            Bb                      C
Now isn't it a pity - your future's just a lump of lead


[Chorus]
     G
But now you're running scared, you've got no place to run, you're caught between the law and the Big Guns

[Verse 2]
              C                                         Bb                     C
Well, it's a long way from the pool halls, through the rackets and the petty crime
                                                   Bb                       C
Well, you thought you were a tough one but you've bitten off too much this time
                                       Bb               C
You've stepped on the wrong toes, now look who you've upset
                                               Bb                      C
You walked on the wrong toes, you've got your picture on the police gazette


[Chorus]
      G
Well now you're running scared, you've got no place to run, you're caught between the law and the Big Guns

     Your back's against a wall,      you don't like it there at all
G F                                  F G
     Now your world's about to fall,      you got no friends you can call


[Verse 3]
           C                         Bb                        C
Well, you never felt so gritty, the sweat's pouring down your back
                                           Bb                  C
You're like a tiger in the jungle and you can't find your way back
                                         Bb              C
You hadn't played your cards right, you hadn't seen the signs,
                                                   Bb                     C
Well, you tried to run the whole game, now you've come to the end of the line


[Chorus]
     G
But now you're running scared, you've got no place to run, cause now you're face to face with the Big Guns
