Shot through the heart and you’re to blame.
Darlin’, you give love a bad name.
An angel’s smile is what you sell.
You promise me heaven then put me through hell.
Chains of love got a hold on me.
When passion’s a prison you can’t break free.
Oh, you’re a loaded gun… yeah.

As I sit in this smokey room
The night about to end
