Capo on 2
Never look her in the eyes
Never tell the truth
[Em]If she knows you're paper
[G]You know she'll have to burn you
[Em]Never tell the one you want
[G]That you do
[Em]Save it for the deathbed
When you [G]know you kept her wanting you
And [Am]do
[Dm]Everything she'd never [C]do[Em][F]
[Em]Fall asleep with stranger's wives
[G]The wild wives of unknown men
[Em]Good for you, you've just become
[G]Just another one of them
[G]Never say you miss her
[Em]Never say a word[F][(Am)]
And [Am]do
[Dm]Everything she'd never [C]do[Em][Am]
[C]Don't let her see[G] your cardinal eyes
[C] [G]
Let her treat you like a[Em] criminal
So you can [G]treat her like a priest
[Em]Girls forgive my human mind
[G]Girls forgive me one more time
