[Intro]
F C F C F
A G A G
[Verse 1]
A Anger and lust G My senses running amok A Bewildered and deluded G Have I been hit by a truck? A When my tongue lay inside his lip G Felt like the time in the womb A But I woke up with a headache that split my skull G Alone in the room
[Chorus]
F I got down on the floor with my head pressed between my knees A Under the bed with my teeth sunk into my own flesh C D F I said, "Baby, oh, sweetheart"
[Interlude]

A G A G
[Verse 2]
A Lust turns to anger G A kiss to a slug A Something was sticky G On your shag rug, look at the tile A I remember the way he groaned G And moved with an animal skill A I rubbed my face in the sweat that ran down his chest G It was all very run of the mill
[Chorus]
F But I noticed his scent started to change somehow A His face went berserk and the veins bulged on his brow C D F I said, "Baby, oh, sweetheart"
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
A Bondage to lust G Abuse of facility A Blackmailed emotions confuse G The demon and devotee A I was sure his intentions were sweet G And that mine was as well A But a wish is a shot in the dark G When your coin's down the well
[Chorus]
F I got out in the hall with my teeth in my head A Up to my neck and I said, said, said, "Dead" C D F I said, "Baby, oh, sweetheart"
[Outro]
