Ebm
I studied evil, I can't deny
                                          Bb7
what the hoodoo sound called a 'love me or die'

something, a nail, a piece o' her dress
                            Ebm
apocathary [sic] devil will behest
                                             Bb7
I will relate deep hideous consequence to my mistake

fallen slave to passing desire
                              Ebm
making the dreaded love me or die

Ebm
Against a jungle prime evil green
                                Bb7
she had the looks of a beauty queen

no bangles or chain wearin' -broken true-
                Ebm
75 cent bottle perfume

I said good mornin', I tipped my hat
                            Bb7
while i was cunnin' like a rat
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/c/cw-stoneking/214788.html ]
smiling gaily look her in the eye
                                  Ebm
I felt in my pocket the love me or die

Ebm
My past, history, one to behold
                           Bb7
I study magic from days of old

membership, secret society
                  Ebm
I am wealt' in my family

But, Matilda, darlin'
                               Bb7
why you don't take my wedding ring?

like a demon under the floor
                              Ebm
bury the hoodoo down the back door

Ebm
Oh, word broke through the town
                            Bb7
that a fever strike Matilda down

Nine thirty the doctors arrive
                                Ebm
priest come runnin', quarter to five

standin' in the weeds early next day
                              Bb7
I saw the meat wagon rollin' away

I seen Matilda layin' in the back
                                 Ebm
her old mother wearin' a suit of rags

Ebm
Sound the trumpet and bang the drum
                           Bb7
I wait for me judgement to come

I know her spirit is down beneat'
                                       Ebm
I hear the weeping and gnashing of the teeth

flames of hell accept my feet
                                       Bb7
in the shadow of the jungle I feel the heat

Matilda's waiting in hell for me too
                               Ebm
all 'cause she died from a bad hoodoo
