  Em

1.   Dead Love couldn't go no further,

Em

    proud of and disgusted by her,

Em

    push shove, a little bruised and battered.

D                             B7                       Em

    Oh, Lord, I ain't comin' home with you.

 

   Em

2.    My life’s a bit more colder,

Em

    dead wife is what I told her,

Em

    brass knife sinks into my shoulder,

D                                         B7                Em    - Em ~

    Oh, babe, don't know what I'm gonna do.

 

               Em

I see my red head, messed bed, tear shed, queen bee, my squeeze.

                       Em                                                                                D

the stage it smells, tells, hells bells, mis-spells, knocks me on my knees.

              Em                                                                          Am

It didn't hurt, flirt, blood squirt, stuffed shirt, hang me on a tree,

            Em                                         B7                                 Em

after I count down, three rounds, in hell I'll be in good company.
