[Intro 1]
[C][C][C][C]
[C][C][C][C]
[C][C][C][C]

[Verse 1]
Well the [C]times are gettin' hard
for you little girl
I'm a [G]hummin' and a strummin'
all [Dm]over God's world
[C]You can't remember
when you got your last meal
[G]And you don't know just
[Dm]how a woman feels
[B]You didn't know what rock 'n' roll was
[Eb]Until you met my drummer
on the grey tour bus
[Bb]I got there in the nick of time
[Eb]Before he got his hands

[Interlude 1]
across your state line, yeah
[C][C][C][C]
[C][C][C][C]

[Verse 2]
Now it's the [C]middle of the night
on the open road
The [G]heater don't work and it's [Dm]oh, so cold
[C]You're lookin' tired,
you're lookin' kinda beat
The [G]rhythm of the street
sure [Dm]knocks you off your feet
[B]You didn't know how rock 'n' roll looked
[Eb]Until you caught your sister
with the guys from the group
[Bb]Halfway home in the parkin' lot
By the [Eb]look in her eye,
she was givin' what she got

[Chorus 1]
I said [C]my, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice, [F]shy babe
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
[G]

[Verse 3]
Ah, [C]woman, you're a mess,
gonna die in your sleep
There's [G]blood on my amp
and my [Dm]Les Paul's beat
[C]Can't keep you home,
you're messin' around
My [G]best friend told me
you're the [Dm]best lick in town
[B]You didn't know that rock 'n' roll burned
[Eb]So you bought a candle
and you lived and you learned
[Bb]You got the rhythm, you got the speed
[Eb]Mama's little baby likes it short and sweet

[Chorus 2]
I said [C]my, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice, [F]shy babe
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
[G]

[Solo 1]

[Verse 4]
[Bb]I didn't know you had a rock 'n' roll record
[Eb]Until I saw your picture
on another guy's jacket
[Bb]You told me I was the only one
But [Eb]look at you now, it's dark as it's done

[Chorus 3]
[C]my, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice, [F]shy babe
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
[C]My, my, my,
I'm once bitten twice [F]shy baby
