[Verse]
        Em
See the day God let men shake hands

    D                C
And allowed women to give birth

        Em
Is the day the devil stuck his flag in the ground and

    D            C
Declared it his turf, yeah

        Em
And at night he goes to sleep

          D              C
But without closing his eyelids

        Em
Like a junkie found dead

           D             C
Under the docks of Coney Island

        Em
Empty promises to speak the truth

    D                C
But then he lies again
[Chorus]
        Em                    D        C
Aw it's venomous yes-o-yeah, venomous yes-ah

                           Em
Oh, but we're talkin' 'bout the devil

             D        C
But have you come to expect-pect, yeah yeah yeah
Em D C
    Em                 D        C
But have you come to expect
[Verse]
          Em
See there is some kind of sign

         D                C
But that sky has yet to tell us, ah

        Em
And it just keeps on rainin' bricks

          D                C
And we've forgotten our umbrellas

        Em
Well I guess it's hard to see the devil
When he's wearing face paint
    D                                    C
If you think you'll see him soon you're bound to get impatient-ah

    Em
You ain't a saint cause you're a sinner like us

       D                                 C
There ain't no proof that God exists but in God we trust
N.C. [Chorus]
 Em                   D        C
Venomous yes-o-yeah, venomous yes-ah

            Em
Oh, it’s so venomous venomous-a-a

 D        C
Venomous, ven-o-mous

 Em                   D        C
Venomous yes-o-yeah, venomous yes-ah

            Em
Oh, it's so ven-o-mous yeah yeah yeah

 D        C
Venomous ven-o-mous
[Solo] Em D C x4 [Verse]
        Em
He was spotted yesterday

         D           C
Somebody   sound that alarm

        Em
He was found dead in his closet-yeah

         D            C
With a needle in his arm-arm-arm
[Chorus]
 Em                   D        C
Venomous yes-o-yeah, venomous yes-ah

            Em
Oh, it's so ven-o-mous yeah yeah yeah

 D        C
Venomous ven-o-mous
[Outro]
