I Should Have Known Better

F5 A5                     F5 A5                       F5 A5
    In an act of contrition     I lay down by your side
                              F5 A5                       F5 A5
It's not your place to comment     On my state of distress
                    F5 A5                     F5 A5
For this is for real     I've tears in my eyes
                        F5 A5                       F5 A5
Am I laughing or crying?     I suggest I'm not lying

          E5      F5      C5  D5
I haven't found a measure yet to
A5  E5       F5      C5      D5
Calibrate my displeasure yet so

F5 A5                  F5 A5                   F5 A5
   To ignore my warning     Could be your folly
                   F5 A5              F5 A5
The judgment is harsh    I offer no plea

    E5      F5        C5        D5
Valuing the vengeance which you treasure
A5      E5         F5      C5  D5
I've redefined the meaning of vendetta

A5                         F5 A5                            F5 A5
The procession's disordered     You protect your possessions
                        F5 A5                    F5 A5
In light of your actions     I question your love

      E5   F5   C5   D5
May I make an observation
A5           E5         F5 C5    D5
Your bite is worse than my aggression

A5                        F5 A5                          F5 A5
I should have known better     I should have known better
                       F5 A5                           F5 A5
Than to become a target     Albeit a target which moves

            E5    F5 C5    D5
No offer of terms or concessions
A5             E5 F5 C5  D5
For statements or confessions
A5             E5   F5      C5    D5
You don't feel warm, I pass close by

A5                   F5 A5                                F5 A5
You shiver, I whisper     Excuse me, what's your problem?
A5       F5 A5                          F5 A5
Oh, I see     I should have known better
