[Intro 1]
[Am][G][Am][G][F][C][G]
[Am][G][F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Well, [Am]I'm
tired of hearing voices,
I don't wanna hear no more.
So [G]call some[F]body,
baby I'll be [C]useless in the morn[G]ing.
My [Am]heart is all in tatters,
I ain't nobody's saint.
I'm just [G]trying [F]not to call you,
[C]trying not [G]to call you.

[Verse 2]
And I [Am]learned the rules [Dm]out
with the wolves.
I'm [C]vicious now, honey,
[G]cruel and unprincipled.
With [Am]tears in my eyeballs,
[Dm]wine on my lips, uh huh.
[C]

[Verse 3]
[Em][Dm]
And [C]all my love, my love, is a plague.
[G]Ain't that a shame? Ain't
that a shame?
[Am]I throb and wince and weep, just the same
I [F]can't feel [Em]a thing[Dm]
[C]ain't [Am]that a shame?

[Verse 4]
[Am]
Now somebody hit the lights,
get the ropes and [G]medi[Am]cines
[G]And think about [F]it, sugar,
[C]and how it's gonna end[G].
[Am]Last night I was freezing,
tonight I'm soaking wet.
Well, I [G]must've had [F]a fever,
salivating in my [C]bed.
[G]And I [Am]learned

[Verse 5]
the rules
[Dm]out with the wolves.
I'm [C]vi cious now, honey,
[G]dumb and insatiable.
With [Am]tears in my eyeballs,
your [Dm]name on my lips, uh [C]huh.

[Verse 6]
[Em]And [Dm]all m[C]y love,
my love, is a plague.
[G]Ain't that a shame? Ain't
that a shame?
[Am]I throb and wince and weep, just the same
I can[F]'t feel a thing,
[Em]ain'[Dm]t tha[C]t a sh[G]ame?[Am]

[Verse 7]
[Am]And [C]all my lov[G]e,
she's [Dm]a pl[Am]ague ain't that a sh[F]ame?
And you [Dm]know you're gonna [C]wait so long,
time slips away.
Till you can[G]'t feel the kick, my,
how we've changed.
[Am]I stood on the platform, waiting in vain,
[F]blue light, my [Dm]baby[C]
[G]And

[Verse 8]
[C]all my love, my love is a plague.
[G]Ain't that a shame, ain't that a shame?
Like [Am]poisonous fingers right in your veins,
[F]Who do you love? who [Dm]do
you [C]blame?[G]
[C]Nobody knows what trouble I'm in.
[G]Ain't that a shame,
ain't it a shame?
[Am]My poisonous fingers inside your veins,
They gonna [F]get you [Em]someday
[Dm]Now ain'[C]t that a shame[Am]?
