Verse
(Riff)
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, I
have a story to tell you, of one's slow decline,
Where a girl yanked on the strings, to break this man's heart,
Oh lord, I think I deserve a little better than this, I think I've earned it,
So I'll just keep humming this song and hope you follow.

Chorus

CTurn (x32010@1)me over, roll me 'round,
DTo (xx0232@1)find the truth that I don't want found,
GOh, (320003@1)don't believe everything you hear,
EmI'm (022000@1)the snake waiting for you, dear,
CAnd (x32010@1)eventually you'll come to me,
DI (xx0232@1)know you will.

Riff(1x)
Oh, I know you will.
Riff(1x)

Verse 2
Riff
Your lipstick crazy, I make my pass,
The drink turns over, the glass smashed,
And with the kindness of my smarts, I replace your pleasure
with a friend at the bottom.

Chorus 2

CTurn (x32010@1)me over, roll me 'round,
DTo (xx0232@1)find the truth that I don't want found,

EmI'm (022000@1)the snake waiting for you, dear,
