Verse
(Riff)
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, I
have a story to tell you, of one's slow decline,
Where a girl yanked on the strings, to break this man's heart,
Oh lord, I think I deserve a little better than this, I think I've earned it,
So I'll just keep humming this song and hope you follow.
Chorus
C
Turn me over, roll me 'round,
D
To find the truth that I don't want found,
G
Oh, don't believe everything you hear,
Em
I'm the snake waiting for you, dear,
C
And eventually you'll come to me,
D
I know you will.
Riff(1x)
Oh, I know you will.
Riff(1x)

Verse 2
Riff
Your lipstick crazy, I make my pass,
The drink turns over, the glass smashed,
And with the kindness of my smarts, I replace your pleasure
with a friend at the bottom.
Chorus 2
C
Turn me over, roll me 'round,
D
To find the truth that I don't want found,
G
Oh, don't believe everything you hear,
Em
I'm the snake waiting for you, dear,
C
And eventually you'll come to me,
D
I know you will.

Oh goodnight, oh goodnight, Fair Lady.
Chorus 3
C
Turn me over, roll me 'round,
D
To find the truth that I don't want found,
G
Oh, don't believe everything you hear,
Em
I'm the snake waiting for you, dear,
C
And eventually you'll come to me,
D
And eventually you'll come to me,
G
We can agree to disagree,
Em
Maybe that was you then, and now this is me,
C D
Eventually you'll come to me, baby, I know you will.
End on G or with the riff
