Intro:  A7  D  
DIt wears you thin
Ten times an hour you'll wGish it dead 
Ask it to leave but it Dstays instead 
DSo unkind 
Making it hard to exGplain without 
Finding new things to com-Dplain about
ASharp teeth test your skin
Too late, you let an angel Din
DIt's all been done
Paints you the picture you Gwant to see 
Cover one eye and look Dcarefully
DBig surprise
You're afraid whatever cGhoice you make
Won't be exactly the Dright mistake
ASharp teeth test your skin
Too late, you let an angel Bmin
I bet you F#feel tapped out
and noDthing left to talk a-Gbout
I Gmguess you're right
You Dfraud 
DIt tells you lies
Just don't imagine you'll Gever win
Any race you aren't Drunning in
DIt follows through
What's the over-under on Ggetting it
Done with out always re-Dgretting it? 
ASharp teeth test your skin
Too late, you let an angel Din 
D

A7 D

Intro:

It wears you thin

Ten times an hour you'll wish it dead

Ask it to leave but it stays instead

So unkind

Making it hard to explain without

Finding new things to com-plain about

Sharp teeth test your skin

Too late, you let an angel in

It's all been done

Paints you the picture you want to see

Cover one eye and look carefully

Big surprise

You're afraid whatever choice you make

Won't be exactly the right mistake

Sharp teeth test your skin

Too late, you let an angel in

I bet you feel tapped out

D G

and nothing left to talk a-bout

I guess you're right

You fraud

It tells you lies

Just don't imagine you'll ever win

Any race you aren't running in

It follows through

What's the over-under on getting it

Done with out always re-gretting it?

Sharp teeth test your skin

Too late, you let an angel in
