Song:Pleasure and pain
Artist: Joey Tempest
This is the way I play it:
Intro: (Bass notes) e–e-g-e-e-g-e-d-d-a-c-a-c-a (2x)
|Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am|
Em d Dsus4 d Am
I hate it when you wander,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
So sensual and free
Em d Dsus4 d Am
And I hate it when you're psychic,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
With things I cannot see
Em d Dsus4 d Am
I hate it when you lead on,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
Like you know which way to go
Em d Dsus4 d Am
And I hate it when you stumble,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
And you never touch the floor…
c d Dsus4 d g
A pathological liar,
c d Dsus4 d g
I’m fallin' again
c d Dsus4 d g
With a flood of desire,
c d Em d Am|Em d Am
I walk the line, between pleasure and pain…
Em d Dsus4 d Am
I hate it when you're lying,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
So close to me at night
Em d Dsus4 d Am
And I hate the way you whisper,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
Sweet words into my mouth

Em d Dsus4 d Am
Yet a woman be the reason,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
A woman be the light,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
A woman be the colour,
Em d Dsus4 d Am
If faith would be my sight…
c d Dsus4 d g
I'm a man of contradiction,
c d Dsus4 d g
With a heart so restrained,
c d Dsus4 d g
So afraid of commitment,
c d Em d Am Em d
I walk the line, between pleasure and pain...
g
It may take one lifetime
d
Or it may take one day
c
For me to find the courage,
g d
Not to walk away
g
If this is all that matters,
d
If this is all we know,
c
If enlightenment is our journey,
Bm (let ring) Em d Am Em
It will never ever… let us go
d
(Never let us go)
Solo: Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am
Em d Am
I hate the way you want me,
Em d Am
Passion in your eyes
Em d Am
I struggle and I reason,
Em d Am
"This couldn't possibly be right."
Am Em d Am
And I fight you with armour,
Am Em
And I fight you with fear,
Am Em
So afraid of what I would find out,
Am Em
If I would let your heart come near…
c d Dsus4 d g
I believe in redemption,
c d Dsus4 d g
For a fool's domain
c d Dsus4 d g
And I ask for forgiveness,
c d
I walk the line,
Em d Am Em d
Between pleasure and pain,
Am Em d Am Em d Am
Between pleasure and pain,
C (let ring) D (let ring)
I walk the line...
Em (let ring)
Between pleasure and pain...
I hope it isn't too disappointing!
Have fun!!!
