Lyrics:
Shot down in flames

Out on the town, looking for a woman ,gonna give me good love
Anybody want to hang out with me? And maybe burn me up?
She was standing alone over by the jukebox like she's something to sell
I said, "Baby what's the going price"... She told me to go to hell

[Chorus]
Shot down in flames, Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame , To be shot down in flames

Singles bar, got my eye on a honey hanging out everywhere
She minds my stay, she minds on her money I really don't care, no
Said, "Hey baby, you're driving me crazy" Laying out on the line
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder said "Toss off buddy she's mine"

[Chorus]

Hey you Angus, shoot me, shoot...

[Chorus]

I don't want to be in pain
Don't want to be shot down in flames

Shot Down In Flames
Young/Young/Scott
Tabbed by: Dylan Cooke

None of the tabs were the way I played this song so I decided to tab it
I have watched this video (the one from the family jewels DVD, where Angus
blows up at the end) millions of times and I quite certain that
This is how Angus plays it

This is the exact progression of the song

From another tab

At the very end there is the chord that AC/DC ends
Lots of their songs with, witch is
E Chord
