C
when i checked into that hotel

F
i couldn’t keep from making a living hell

G G7
i took off my jewelry and rented a movie

C F
then i tried to call you ’cause something confused me

G F
i went for a walk to find some blood

C G C
with the blinders eyes on my miserable mug

C Cmaj7
breaking locks and getting shocked

F F7
noone should ever hold me up

C G
i’ve been too aweful to ever be thoughtful

C G
to ever be ni – i – i – ice

C
when i took off my winter clothes

F
my body looked like fourty or fifty crows

G G7
alone in my mansions i had to command you

C F
but i was just escaping your conjugal sand dunes

G F
now i’m like this a bare – chested ghoul

C G C
with his cigarette – eyes and his visible drool

C Cmaj7
breaking locks and getting shocked

F F7
noone should ever hold me up

C G
i’ve been too aweful to ever be thoughtful

C G
to ever be ni – i – i – ice

C Cmaj7
breaking locks and getting shocked

F F7
noone should ever hold me up

C G
i’ve been too aweful to ever be thoughtful

C G G C
to ever be ni – ce
