We left...
C Bb
We left the toys out in the yard
A Dm
I took my wife and kids and left my home unguarded
C Bb
We packed what we could into the car
A Dm
No one here knows how it started
Suddenly everything was just so out of control
Am
Now I want some answers, mister, I need to know
Bb
I hear all the talk but I don't know what you're sayin'
But I think I got a good idea of the game that you're playin'
C Dm
Roulette, that's the name
C Bb
Roulette, that's the game now
C Dm
Roulette, I don't know what they're sayin'
C Bb | F C | Dm
Roulette, and everybody's playin'
C Bb
I grew up here on this street where nothin' moves, just a strange breeze
A Dm
In a town full of worthless memories
C
There's a shadow in my backyard
Bb
I've got a house full of things that I can't touch
A
Well all those things won't do me much good now
Dm
I was a fireman out at Riker's, I did my job
Am
Mister, I've been cheated, I feel like I've been robbed
Bb
I'm the big expendable, my life's just cancelled, null and void
But what are you gonna do about your new boy
C Dm
Roulette, you're playin' with my life
C Bb
Roulette, with my children and my wife
C Dm
Roulette, every day the stakes get bigger
C Bb | F C |
Roulette, a different finger on the trigger

Dm C Bb
Down by the river that talks the night speaks in searchlights
A Dm
And shortwave radios squawk,
C
The police patrol the streets
Bb
But I've left behind the man I used to be,
A
Everything he believed in and all that belonged to me
Dm
I tried to find my way out to somewhere where I thought it'd be safe
Am
They stopped me at the roadblock they put up on the interstate
Bb
They put me in detention but I broke loose and then I ran
Gm Bb
They said they want to ask me a few questions but I think they had other plans
A4
Now I don't know who to trust and I don't know what I can believe
They say they want to help me but with the stuff they keep on sayin'
I think those guys just wanna keep on playin'
C Dm
Roulette, with my life
C Bb
Roulette, with my kids and my wife
C Dm
Roulette, the bullet's in the chamber
C Bb
Roulette, who's the unlucky stranger
C Dm
Roulette, surprise, you're dead
C Bb
Roulette, the gun's to your head
C Dm
Roulette, the bullet's spinning in the chamber
C Bb
Roulette, pull the trigger, feel the click
F C
No further danger
