[Ab] [Eb] Tell me all the things you would [Ab] change.
[Eb] I don't pretend to know what [Ab] you want.
[Cm] When you come around and spin my [F] top, [D] time and again,

[Ab] you'll shower [Bb] over everyone.
[Cm] Now I'm lying on [Bb] the table, [Ab]
washed out in the blood.
[Bb] Like a Christian [Ab] fearing vengeance from above.
[Cm] I don't [Bb] pretend to know what [Ab] you want,
[Fm] but I [Bb] often learn.
[Fm] [Ab] [Bb] [Eb]
