[Verse 1]
D G
Louise only got from me innocent poetry
D A
Although she played to not listen
D G
But still I can hear myself speak as if no one else
D A D
Ever could offer the same
D G
Some say she knowingly tastes like a recipe
D A
Although so foolish and willing
D G
I said, 'Babe I can picture you bend as if wanting to
D A D
Bow as the curtain goes down'
[Chorus]
G D
Coddle some men, they'll remember you bitterly
G A
Fuck 'em, they'll come back for more
G D
I asked my Louise would she leave and so cripple me
G A
Then came a knock at the door
[Verse 2]
D G
I came for my woman he came with a razor blade
D A
Bound like us all for the ocean
D G
I hope that she's happy I'm blamed for the death
D A D
Of the man who would take her from me
[instrumental]
G D G A G D G A
D G
Some say they saw in me innocent poetry
D A
Some say they'll never be certain
D G
But still it's been written, a history of lovers
D A D
Given and taken in ink
[Chorus]
G D
Coddle some men, they'll remember you fittingly
G A
Cut 'em, they'll come back for more
G D
I asked my Louise would she leave and so cripple me
G A
Then came the knock at the door
[Verse 3]
D G
Louise came to rescue me missing the irony
D A
Blood made her heart change its beating
D G
I hope that she's happy I'm blamed for the death
D A D
Of a man she found better than me
