D          G          D
Sue, don't waste your love
     G                  D
Come down from off that truck
            A         G              D
It's a shit business, but you're not stuck
                G    D
You thought you had enough
  G                 D
Detached your ankle cuffs
    A        G        D
And bolted beyond the bluffs
    G                 D
You found yourself in mud
           G           A
before you ever tasted blood

            G      D
Like me you aim to soothe
    G                D
But doubt was on the move
    A       G     D
Its aim was to disprove
               G      D
Come from your sewing room
     G                 D
Your best will birth a boon
         A         G        D
Did they read your palm too soon?
    G                    D
And eight days following death
       G               A
You'll rise and draw a breath

                     G     D
Your parasitism is in peril now
          G                   D
What an inhospitable host you found
         A        G           D
And your luck has been ground down
               G    D
Soon those you ostracized
                 G                  D
Will strike like bolts between your eyes
D         A         G             D
You don't convince, why feign surprise
G                      D
And when they burn the books
           G                    A
I hope you still get by on your looks

            G          D
You let your heartaches pass
        G             D
They're only built on glass
     A        G       D
Come see what you've amassed
                 G      D
The beast like a dragon spake
     G               D
Said swallow all you take
             A        G       D
'Cause your extinction is home plate
     G                D
Look now beyond false friends
    G                    A
And lie 'neath my awning again
