[Verse 1]
Bm D A G
why can't we rearrange the tectonic plates?
Bm D A G
there's another painted woman at the foot of the stage
Bm D A G
blue eyes, black thighs, you don't give a damn
Bm D A G
as every cheek in this room prepares to give you a hand
G 3x
[Verse 2]
Bm D A G
cheap beer and moonlight were never enough
Bm D A G
and every time i cried wolf, you had to call my bluff
Bm D A G
you'd start to call me more fashionable names
Bm D A G
and i chipped my teeth on our wedding day
G 3x
[Chorus]
Bm D A G
bang, bang, bang goes the front door
Bm D A G
and bang, bang, bang goes my heart to the floor
Bm D A G
you'd be a liar if you settled for more
Bm D A G
oh, these are the plights of the ever-unsure

[Verse 3]
Bm D A G
if we do this your way, it'll never be through

Bm D A G
you'll have a hell of a time crawling back to the start
G 3x

Bm D A G
build me a cradle and make it swing deep
Bm D A G
and you can tell all the neighbors that i just went to sleep
Bm D A G
you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Bm D A G
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Bm D A G
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
G
Oh...
Bm D A G G 3x
so just cut off my hands and watch me try to undress
