G                              Am 
I took my blade, and I cut him deep
        C
And the blood bloomed red on his crisp white shirt
                         G
For your party guests to see

I could've run in the night
                           Am 
I could've slit his throat in his sleep
      C  
But I wanted you to see
                  G 
The company you keep

  D                                           C
I thought we went together like violence on a balmy night
          D                                G      C
I thought being alone with a violent man made you feel alright
Em              G
Can we get away tonight?
G 
And your father said follow the money to the source
                    Am 
That's what life is all about
                   C           Em
Then you fuck the source
                    G 
Till the money comes out

D
You say that I'm a brute
C
Cause I fell faster than you
D
But I've got a heart that's true
            C                     Em 
And there's nothing that I won't do
                  G
To get away with you


G  O: G Am C Em G 


D
Smile lights the slander in her eyes
           C
She's the dark clouds swirling in my skies
           D
And the cocktail chatter all starts to dim
           C
Like a doppler away from me she spins
          D
On a bloom light sea she starts to swim
          C                      Em 
She betrayed me, all now on a whim
                   G 
To get away with him

G
I took my blade
                             Am 
But I couldn't get it all to drain
        C                              Em
I could see him bleeding differently
                          G 
Like teardrops in the rain
