SHE TWISTS THE KNIFE AGAIN 
EmI keep my nose clean, I keep my speech plain 
GI keep my promises, Amshe twists the Bmknife again 
EmI shut my memory, I close my eyes and then 
GShe takes another bite, Amshe twists the Bmknife again 
CShe never Dleaves me Cmy Ddignity 
CMakes a Ddunce of me Gin mixed Acompany 
CNo bygonDe can be Ca bygonDe 
CShe throDws the spanner iGn, she puts the Ascrews on 
AmIn the Dmmiddle of a Gkiss, she twists the Aknife again 
When I Dmget up off my Gknees, she twists the Aknife again 
When I Dmthink I'm off the Ghook she gets me 
AmShe twists the knife again, Amshe twists the knife again 
EmI make my moves well, I let her tell me when 
GI walk a fine line, she Amtwists the knife Bmagain 
EmJust when the scar heals, just when the grip unbends 
GJust when her mind reels, she twAmists the knife aBmgain
