Intro
Gm A# F D# 4x
D# 3x
[Verse 1]
Gm A# F D#
why can't we rearrange the tectonic plates?
Gm A# F D#
there's another painted woman at the foot of the stage
Gm A# F D#
blue eyes, black thighs, you don't give a damn
Gm A# F D#
as every cheek in this room prepares to give you a hand
D# 3x
[Verse 2]
Gm A# F D#
cheap beer and moonlight were never enough
Gm A# F D#
and every time i cried wolf, you had to call my bluff
Gm A# F D#
you'd start to call me more fashionable names
Gm A# F D#
and i chipped my teeth on our wedding day
D# 3x
[Chorus]
Gm A# F D#
bang, bang, bang goes the front door
Gm A# F D#
and bang, bang, bang goes my heart to the floor
Gm A# F D#
you'd be a liar if you settled for more
Gm A# F D#
oh, these are the plights of the ever-unsure
D# 3x
Gm A# F D# 4x
D# 3x
[Verse 3]
Gm A# F D#
if we do this your way, it'll never be through
Gm A# F D#
we've got a lot to say and even less to do
Gm A# F D#
bloodlust is the ticket, and contrition is fraud
Gm A# F D#
you'll have a hell of a time crawling back to the start
D# 3x
[Verse 4]
Gm A# F D#
build me a cradle and make it swing deep
Gm A# F D#
and you can tell all the neighbors that i just went to sleep
Gm A# F D#
you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Gm A# F D#
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Gm A# F D#
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
D#
Oh...
Gm A# F D# D# 3x
so just cut off my hands and watch me try to undress
