'Oh, Scorpio'

    G                                                          Em
She wants him cause she's bored like he's just a hobby she can take up
       C                                                   D
So she shows up to his door wearing just a little too much make up
          Bm                                              Em
Now she's crying out her eyes saying baby I never want to break up
              C                                                          A
And he'll say sorry for the lies but you were just another shoe I had to lace up

        D     G                D               G
And now sweet Alexis is having fingernails for breakfast
       Bm              G            A
Crying tears as big as Texas drying all around her neck
              D                G                D                    G
Well it comes down to who hits hardest when you deal with cheap shot artists
           Bm               G                 A7       C     G
Who's more ruthless or more heartless darling what did you expect

               G                                                 Em
Well now she's driving down the road going sixty in a three door chariot
              C                                                    D
I've got this hatchet with your name on it and all i want to do is bury it
          Bm                                                            Em
She saw a stranger in the road and he said honey that looks heavy can I carry it
             C                                                        A
And then she threw it at his face said if you love it so much you can marry it

        D     G                D               G
And now sweet Alexis is having fingernails for breakfast
       Bm              G            A
Crying tears as big as Texas drying all around her neck
              D                G                D                    G
Well it comes down to who hits hardest when you deal with cheap shot artists
           Bm               G                 A7       C     G
Who's more ruthless or more heartless darling what did you expect

Em C D Bm Em C A

        D     G                D               G
And now sweet Alexis is having fingernails for breakfast
       Bm              G            A
Crying tears as big as Texas drying all around her neck
              D                G                D                    G
Well it comes down to who hits hardest when you deal with cheap shot artists
           Bm               G                 A7       C     G
Who's more ruthless or more heartless darling what did you expect
           A7       C     G
Oh darling what did you expect
           A7       C     G
Oh darling what did you expect
