E                       A    
Well, I'm going to the hardware store.
           E                     A
I'm gonna buy you a really big hammer.
   E                        A               B
Girly won't you pull these nails out of my heart.
  E                      A    
Then I'm going to the sporting goods store.
          E                       A
I'm gonna buy you a really heavy baseball bat.
 E                           A                  B
Girly won't you knock these thoughts out of my head.
(Chorus) 
 A                  B             
Beat me till I'm black and blue
         E              A
And I'm hangin' by a thread.
           B
And I can get back up
            A               E
And we can do it all over again.
(Verse)
E                       A
Well, I'm going to the liquor store.
          E                     A
I'm gonna buy you a really big bottle.
 E                         A             B 
Girly won't you pour some light into my life.
 E                      A     
Then I'm going to the firearms store.
         E                        A
I'm gonna buy you a really pretty hand gun.
   E                       A              B
Girly won't you blow this mess out of my mind.
(Chorus)
A                  B      
Beat me till I'm black and blue,
          E            A 
And I'm very nearly dead.
           B
And I can get back up
           A              E 
And we can do it all over again.
