Tom: C
Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G6 C
Been a lover, been a cheat
C#m/B Em G6 C
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
C#m/B Em G6 C
A little one, I don't want to admit to something
C#m/B Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
G6 C
Truth in my lies right now are falling like the rain
C#m/B
So let the river run
Em G6
He's coming home with his neck scratched to catch flack
C C#m/B
Sweat jackets and dress slacks, mismatch
Em
On his breast jackets is sex addict
G6 C Am C#m/B
And she just wants to exact revenge and get back
Em G6
It's a chess match, she's on his back like a jetpack
C
She's kept track of all his internet chats
C#m/B Em
And guess who just so happens to be moving on to the next?
G6 C Am C#m/B
Actually, just shit on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks
Em G6
'Cause she loves danger, psychopath
C C#m/B
And you don't fuck with no man's girl, even I know that
Em G6 C
But she's devised some plan to stab him in the back
Am C#m/B
Knife in hand, says the relationship's hanging by a strand
Em
So she's been on the web lately
G6 C C#m/B
Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man
Em G6 C
And I know she's using me to try to play him, I don't care
Hi Suzanne, but I shoulda' said "Bye Suzanne" after the first night, but tonight I am
Em
I've been a liar, been a thief

Em G6
One night stand turned into night stayin'
C C#m/B
It was cold, some lights gram, y'all be hung tight and
Em G6
He found out, now she feels deserted and used
C Am C#m/B
'Cause he left, so what? He did it first to her too
Em G6
Now how am I supposed to tell this girl that we're through?
C C#m/B
It's hard to find the words, I'm aloof, nervous and suited
Em
When it's too hurt but what you deserve is the truth
G6 C Am C#m/B
Don't take it personal, I just can't say this in person to you
Em G6 C
So I revert to the studio like Hole In The Wall diners
C#m/B
Don't have to be reserved in a booth
Em G6
I just feel like the person who I'm turnin' into is
C Am C#m/B
Irreversible, I prayed on you like it's church at the pew
Em
And now that I got you I don't want you
G6 C
Took advantage of my thirst to pursue
C#m/B
Why do I do this dirt that I do?
Em G6
Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon in speech
C
Detergent and bleach is burned in the womb
'Cause now with her in the womb
We can't bring her in this world, shoulda' knew
To use protection 'fore I bit into your forbidden fruit
Fuck!

Always the bridesmaid, never the bride hey
C
What can I say, if life was a highway
Em
This sequel's an enclave, I'll be swerving in 5 lanes
C#m/B C
Speeds at a high rate, like I'm sliding on ice made
Em
Thats what I made, came at you sideways
C#m/B C
I can't keep my lies straight, What I made you terminate my baby
Em C#m/B
This love triangle angle left us in a wrecked tangle
C
What else can I say, it was fun for a while
Bet I really would've loved your smile
Didnt really wanna
But fuck it, whats one more lie to tell an unborn child
Em
