As recorded by Julien Baker & TORRES (2025 release) [Intro] D G D A D [Verse 1]
D                    G     D
I'm not gonna be the angel on your shoulder

              A                              D
Don't look to me to be the one to tell you, "No"

                                    G
If you get a taste for trouble, any given afternoon

            A
It won't be me reining you in

           G              D
Oh, 'cause I like trouble too
[Chorus]
               G
I'll keep your vase full of fresh flowers

         D
And I'll meet you eye to eye

A                             G            D
I'll love on your parents and never tell a lie

     G                                D
I'll keep the tables turning and I'll always do my best

           A                        G        D
To hold on tight to the only marble I've got left
[Verse 2]
D                          G               D
In my book there's no such thing as guilty pleasure

   A                             D
As long as your pleasure's not unkind

                  G
The way I see it, there are no safe bets

        A
And any street you end up crossing

          G      D
Well, you better trust your legs
[Chorus]
               G
I'll keep your vase full of fresh flowers

         D
And I'll look you in the eye

A
I'll love on your parents

            D
Won't be of boredom that you'll die

           G                                D
Cause I'll keep the tables turning and I'll always do my best

            A                            G    D
To keep you charmed with the only marble I've got left
[Outro]
    G        A         D          G
The longer I live, the stranger I get

                  A
If I'm pacing the floor

              D             G
Hope I'm just stoned off my gourd

       A                        G     D
Not looking for the only marble I had left
