Am C G F
why can't we rearrange the tectonic plates?

there's another painted woman at the foot of the stage
Am C G F
blue eyes, black thighs, you don't give a damn
Am C G F

[Verse 2]
Am C G F
cheap beer and moonlight were never enough
Am C G F
and every time i cried wolf, you had to call my bluff

you'd start to call me more fashionable names
Am C G F
and i chipped my teeth on our wedding day
F 3x
[Chorus]
Am C G F
bang, bang, bang goes the front door
Am C G F
and bang, bang, bang goes my heart to the floor

Am C G F

Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Am C G F
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
