Listen to me I've got a warning for you

You've got to learn to take more care

Be careful how you dry your hair

In a room within a  room

It's so hard to hold   back

When the fire is in your eyes

         Dm     Cadd9 G    Bb
A silver dollar in my pocket

I don't like surprises

     Dm       Cadd9 G  Bb
I've got your souvenir

     Dm    Cadd9             G   Bb
Is that the price I've got to pay

     Dm   Cadd9     G   Bb
It hasn't been that long

Since the last charade

I know you're guilty

        Dm   Cadd9   G   Bb
But I'm carrying the blame

           Dm        Cadd9      G  Bb
I took out much more than I put in

      Dm Cadd9 G  Bb
And I felt the pain

     Dm    Cadd9  G   Bb
In a dirty little room

     Dm      Cadd9   G  Bb
With nowhere left to hide

    Dm       Cadd9           G   Bb
You told the truth with your eyes

        Dm Cadd9 G   Dm  C
But you li-ed  inside
