[A]
Oh, I bled on the bed from [D] a wound [A] in my hand On the [D] night before [A] I sent this
Well, I'm with dread [D] from the things that [A] were said In the boardroom that left [E] me defenseless
And [F#m] though you weren't [D] there, I could still [A] feel you stare In your voice that rang cold and [B] [E] contemptuous
So [A] forgive me this morning [D] if I should [A] fall warm In the arms [B] of the [A] lethal temptress
[D] [A]
At a nightclub engagement [D] you sang [A] on the stage In a voice that was broken [E] and tuneless
Still, [A] it's better to work than [D] to beg [A] like a jerk For the kinds of things we all [E] find useless
[F#] And [F#m] hell hath no fury, [D] and dear, I'm [A] not war I will sleep to my [E] eternal penance
[A] Just one more glass of gin [D] before I fall [A] back in To the arms [E] of the [A] lethal temptress

[A] you frightened with ghost [D] town and ground them [A] all down
Till one day you'd reach [E] your consensus [A] And I know from your worship [D] America [A] first
And all others you [E] simply beat senseless [F#] And worship [F#m] like [D] this is to honor [A] the best
And the conduit's [E] cruel and licentious [A] And I don't know what's [D] fair and I really [A] don't care

I won't place a bet [D] but I knew when [A] we met That one day we'd come [E] to regret this
[A] And that what once was love [D] can turn quickly [A] enough Into something so [E] hot and contentious
[F#] And hell hath no [D] fury and death is [A] no jury Our lives ended before [E] I commence this
[A] But for one final sin [D] you won't see me [A] again In the [E] arms of the [A] lethal temptress
