As recorded by The Black Crowes (From the 1994 Album AMORICA - 2025 DELUXE EDITION) [Intro] G [Verse 1]
G
Sour, bitter, bitter you

G
Oh, yeah, it's true

G
And I know 'cause I've been strychnined too
[Refrain]
D   C               G
  A moth 'round the glow of your eyes

D      C            G
All frozen, broken, beautiful, and wise

D       C           G
Be my secret, be my sanitarium too

D            C           G
Be too early for me, too late for you, huh
[Interlude] G [Verse 2]
G
Hard like a hammer in my hand

G
Pussy trainer in the cold steel bed
[Refrain]
D    C            G
 One finger stuck inside her mouth

D        C           G
 All her motives you must doubt

D        C        G
A single-minded catastrophe

        D           C            G
There's blood on my ceiling, but I can't read
[Bridge]
A#  F# G     A#       F#   G   A#      F# G  A#  F# G

A# F# G        A#            F# G      A#        F# G  A#  F# G
I     could be frost on your window on some cold morn'

A# F# G A#    F#  G    A#       F# G  A#  F#
I could empty out your heart of scorn

    G
But will I?
[Guitar Solo] C G [Verse 3]
G
Hiding from the mirror inside your mind

                                                 F C G
And astonished by all the things that you always find
[Refrain]
D       C               G
 Just a moth 'round the glow of her eyes

D      C            G
All frozen, broken, beautiful, and wise

D             C           G
Yeah, be my secret, be my sanitarium too

D           C             G
Yes, be too early for me, too late for you

I could empty out your heart of scorn

But will I?
