Serpents

[Intro]Am Am C E


[Verse 1:]
Am
I was in the second grade when you 
pushed me out
Am
Third story window to the bushes 
down below
C
Breathing in the cold
      E
As I tumbled through the vines' 
thorns smiling at my throat
Am
I, I saw the devil in you that day
Am                            C
Looking down at me with that face
Smiling like you would have hid my 
 E
body in the basement
                 Am
Body in the Basement
But you got something that the 
               C
world's been running from
                         Am
For way too long and it's a sick 
twist
                    E
A nervous little twitch
Dragging the razors across my wrists
Am                           
And you got something that the 
               C
world's been trying to hide
You're cyanide
   Am
Cause the only thing you told me was
                      E
They'd never find my body in the 
basement
Body in the basement, no

[Hook:]
Am                                
Every time I think about you know 
      C
I go crazy

                Am
People ask me about you
I don't know what to say
                          E
Cause I don't know who you are
Am                                
I wonder if it's even possible for
         C
 you to escape this
                 Am
Keep on asking about you

They don't know what to tell me
                        E
They don't know who you are
                        Am
They don't know who you are

[Verse 2:]
Am
I was listening through the wall 
when you met your monsters
Am                                
Heard'em break the closet door and
      C
 take you away
Hoping you would change like the 
E
color of the moonlight
Bouncing off the rain
Am
I, I heard the devil in you that day
                              C
Watch the world around you cascade
Laughing like you would have fed 
     E
your family to the serpent
                  Am
Family to the serpent
Am                             
You got something that the world 
        C
won't talk about
They walk around it
   Am                           
It's deep sleep, crawling in the 
 E
street
Pushing the bayonet into me
Am                             
You got something that the world 
        C
keeps trapped inside
You aconite
     Am
Cause I watched you turn around
                       E
Go and try to feed you family to the
 serpent
                      Am
Family to the serpent whole

[Bridge:]
Am                             
These words won't break on you I 
   C
know
             E                   
I've done my best to help so many 
     Am
times before
Am                              C
These words won't break on you I 
know
             E
I've done my best to help

[Hook]
Am                                
Every time I think about you know 
      C
I go crazy
                Am
People ask me about you
I don't know what to say
                          E
Cause I don't know who you are
Am                                
I wonder if it's even possible for
         C
 you to escape this
                 Am
Keep on asking about you

They don't know what to tell me
                        E
They don't know who you are
                        Am
They don't know who you are
