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

[Verse 3]
G#m B F# E
if we do this your way, it'll never be through
G#m B F# E
we've got a lot to say and even less to do
G#m B F# E
bloodlust is the ticket, and contrition is fraud
G#m B F# E
you'll have a hell of a time crawling back to the start
E 3x
[Verse 4]
G#m B F# E
build me a cradle and make it swing deep
G#m B F# E
and you can tell all the neighbors that i just went to sleep
G#m B F# E
you'd be a liar if you settled for less
G#m B F# E
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
G#m B F# E
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
E
Oh...
G#m B F# E E 3x
so just cut off my hands and watch me try to undress
