I'd imagine the repeating riff on the Am chord is probably played a little different,
but you can get it to sound close enough by hammering the D and G strings on and off
during the Am chord.
Am - x02210
F - x33210
C - x32010
G - 320010
Dm - xx0231
[Intro]
Am F C G (x2)
[Verse]
Am Well, I'm tired of hearing voices, I don't wanna hear no more. F C G So call somebody, baby… I'll be useless in the morning. Am My heart is all in tatters, I ain't nobody's saint. F C G I'm just trying not to call you, trying not to call you.
[Pre-chorus]
Am Dm And I learned the rules out with the wolves. C G I'm vicious now, honey, cruel and unprincipled. Am Dm C G F With tears in my eyeballs, wine on my lips, uh huh.
[Chorus]
C And all my love, my love, is a plague. G Ain't that a shame? Ain't that a shame? Am I throb and wince and weep, just the same… F C I can't feel a thing G Am ain't that a shame?
[Verse]
Am Now somebody hit the lights, get the ropes and medicines F C G And think about it, sugar, and how it's gonna end. Am Last night I was freezing, tonight I'm soaking wet. F C G Am Well, I must've had a fever, salivating in my bed.
[Pre-chorus]
Am Dm And I learned the rules out with the wolves. C G I'm vicious now, honey, dumb and insatiable. Am Dm C G F With tears in my eyeballs, your name on my lips, uh huh.
[Chorus]
C And all my love, my love, is a plague. G Ain't that a shame? Ain't that a shame? Am I throb and wince and weep, just the same… F C I can't feel a thing G Am ain't that a shame?
[Interlude]
C
[Bridge]
C G Am F And all my love, she's a plague… ain't that a shame? C And you know you're gonna wait so long, time slips away. G Till you can't feel the kick, my, how we've changed. Am F C G I stood on the platform, waiting in vain… blue light, my baby…
[Outro]
C And all my love, my love is a plague. G Ain't that a shame, ain't that a shame? Am Like poisonous fingers right in your veins, F Who do you love? Who do you blame? C Nobody knows what trouble I'm in. G Ain't that a shame, ain't it a shame? Am My poisonous fingers inside your veins, F C They gonna get you someday… G Am Now ain't that a shame?
