Chord/Tab song: The Albatross

[Am]Wise men [G]once said
[C]"Wild winds are [F]death to the candle"
[Am]A rose by [G]any [C]other name [F]is a scandal
[Am]Cautions [G]issued, [C]he stood
[G]Shooting the messengers
[Am]They tried to [G]warn him about[C] her[F]
 
[C]Cross your [G]thoughtless heart
[Am]Only [F]liquor anoints you
[C]She's the [G]albatross
[Am]She is here to [F]destroy you
 
[Am]Wise men [G]once said
"[C]One bad seed [F]kills the garden"
"[Am]One less [G]temptress
[C]One less [F]dagger to sharpen"
[Am]Locked me [G]up in [C]towers
[F]But I'd visit in your dreams
[Am]And they tried to [G]warn you [C]about [F]me
 
[C]Cross your [G]thoughtless heart
[Am]Only liquor [F]anoints you
[C]She's the [G]albatross
[Am]She is here [F]to destroy you
[C]Devils that [G]you know
[Am]Raise worse [F]hell than a stranger
[C]She's the [G]death you chose
[Am]You're in [F]terrible danger
 
And when that [C]sky rains[G] fire on [Am]you[F]
And [C]you're persona [G]non grata[Am] [F]
I'll [C]tell you how I've [G]been there [Am]too[F]
And [C]that none of it [G]matters[Am] [F]
 
 
[Am]Wise men [G]once read [C]fake news
[F]And they believed it
[Am]Jackals [G]raised their[C] hackles
[F]You couldn't conceive it
[Am]You were [G]sleeping [C]soundly
[F]When they dragged you from your bed
[Am]And I tried to [G]warn you about [C]them[F]
 
So I [C]crossed my [G]thoughtless heart
[Am]Spread my wings [F]like a parachute
[C]I'm the [G]albatross
[Am]I swept in [F]at the rescue
[C]The devil that[G] you know
[Am]Looks now more [F]like an angel
[C]I'm the [G]life you chose
And [Am]all this [F]terrible danger
 
So [C]cross your [G]thoughtless heart
[Am]She's the [F]albatross
[C]She is here to [G]destroy you
