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

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

Em G D C
you'll have a hell of a time crawling back to the start
C 3x
[Verse 4]
Em G D C
build me a cradle and make it swing deep
Em G D C
and you can tell all the neighbors that i just went to sleep
Em G D C
you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Em G D C
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
Em G D C
Oh, you'd be a liar if you settled for less
C
Oh...

so just cut off my hands and watch me try to undress
