Girl, you taught me how to hurt real bad and cry myself to sleep;
                                           A           E

        A                              E            
Another lesson 'bout a naive fool that came to Babylon
                   E7                 A            E   F#   G#

There ain't no glamour in this tinsel land of lost and wasted lives;
                                         A           E        
And painful scars are all that's left of me.
