Chords

[Intro] (drums) ..... F5 Bb5 x4 [Verse 1]
F5
  Consumed by the one's who made her

Bb5
She's a faker, always let's me down

F5
  Dressed up like a capital shaker

Bb5
Pull the? That judgement let her down

F5
  I'll have your guts for garters, just for starters

Bb5
Don't you make me frown

F5
  She could've been a nutter

Bb5                        F5
So I had to cut the mother down
[Chorus]
       A5                Bb5              F5
Slacker, wasting half is life on sniffing glue

                   A5              Bb5               F5
Now he's a foreman working for the red the white and blue

Plain sailing, safe surfing

          Bb5        F5
Public peeling, back stab
[Verse 2]
F5
  Confused by the one's who break her

Bb5
She's a faker, never makes a sound

F5
  Undressed like a soul in prayer

Bb5
Buy a share, pay her by the pound

F5
  I'll have your face for breakfast

Bb5
I'm in excess, need of a stroke down

F5
  She could've been a nutter

Bb5
So I had to cut the mother down
[Chorus]

I deserve so much more than this
