[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
Is this thing Ecursed?
This G#mgoddamn thing's the worst
Now one Alook in that Edirection
And Beverything starts to hurt
Is this thing Ecursed?
It's G#mbeen around for years
And Aeverytime my boat's aEbout tits up
That Bgoddamn thing is near
[Break]
I tried to G#mthrow it in the rAiver
But it Bwashed up in my C#msink
And now the Dcity cut my water
And it's Aall I have to Bdrink
[Verse 2]
Is this thing Ecursed?
If it G#mis then I'm the jerk
Who Akeeps on hanging aEround
When I Bsimply should just burn it to the gEround
Maybe G#mit's some kind of spell
That AI've been living Eunder
Collecting Bcoins found near a nightmare wishing G#mwell
[Break]
Coldest Aregards
Signed my Bname and sealed the C#mcard
Tried to Dleave it all behind me
And almost Ablew up in my Bcar
[Bridge]
Is this thing Ecursed?
G#m   C#m   A   E   B
Is this thing Ecursed?
G#m   C#m   A   E   B
[Verse 3]
Is this thing Ecursed?
My G#mhaunted head aches so much worse
Than Athose that can't reEmember
How Bdismemberment works
Is this thing Ecursed?
It's G#mbeen around for years
And everAtime my life's aEbout tits up
That Bgoddamn thing is near
[Break]
I tried to G#mthrow it in the rAiver
But it Bwashed up in my C#msink
And now the Dcity cut my water
And it's Aall I have to Bdrink
[Outro]
Is this thing Ecursed?
