G C G
They're lining up...to mad dog your tilta-whirl
G
3 shots for a dollar win a real live doll
Em Bm C D
All the lies that you tell I believed them so well
G C G
Take them back. Take them back to your red house
G
For that fearful leap into the dark
Em Bm C D
I did my time in the jail of your arms
G C D
Now Ophelia wants to know where she should turn
G C G
Tell me...what did you do? What did you do the last time?...
G
Why don't you do that
G C G
Go on ahead take this the wrong way
G
Time's not your friend
Em Bm C D
Do you cry, Do you pray, Do you wish them away
Em Bm C D
Do you still leave nothing but the bones in the way
Em Bm C D
Did you bury the carnival, lions and all
D G
Excuse me while I sharpen my nails
G C G
And just who are you? Who are you this time?
G
You look rather tired (who drinks from your shoe)
G C G
Are you pretending to love? Well I hear that it pays well
Em Bm C D
How do your pistol and your Bible and your sleeping pills go
Em Bm C D
And are you still jumping out of windows in expensive clothes?
Em Bm C D
Well I fell in love with your sailor's mouth
C D
and your wounded eyes
Em Bm
You better get down on the floor
C D
Don't you know this is war
C D G
Tell me who are you this time?
C D G
Tell me who are you this time?
