Intro:

I heard about the venom

At a broke down Five and Dime

The rain cried down the window

Just like those tears of mine

Just then a gray haired woman

Sat down right next to me

She heard me cry and looked in my eye

And said, "Baby, I got what you need"

You need a snakebite

And once you get that venom in your veins

They'll come alive

I know just what you go through every day

C E

That pain inside, I can make it right

With the snakebite

She handed me a map with streets

I said, "I've never seen"

And she told me, "My friend, this town has secrets

Darker than you could ever dream"

I went to some back alley

Behind a liquor store

If someone had told me how tight it would hold me

I never would have open the door

I got the snakebite

And once I had that venom in my veins

I came alive

Oh, you don't know what I go through everyday

C E

The pain inside, I'm gonna make it right

With the snakebite

My momma told me

Baby, be wary of evil ones

Who want to ensnare the heavy hearted

Into their webs and feed upon their souls

Oh momma, I hope you never know

It hasn't been a year now

And all my hair is gray

You know, it's funny

But I don't remember my own name

I'd go and hurt that woman

Who put this pain in me

But my heart is weak, it wants that venom

She comes around 'cause she knows I need

The snakebite

Oh, I gotta get that venom in my veins

To feel alive

Oh, you don't know what I go through every day

C E

This pain inside, I'm gonna make it right

With the snakebite

Oh, I gotta get that venom in my veins

And come alive

Oh, you don't know what I go through every day

C E

That pain inside, I'm gonna make it right

With the snakebite

E Am

Oh, I got the snakebite
