Brilliant tune from a brilliant long awaited new album - there's a tricky
strumming pattern to this tune but you should get it with practice.
Sorry about the tab title - I got it wrong and now UG won't let me change it.

My love, my love, you're the sting of the scorpion

Consider, now, the angels, a little lower than you
Em7Cadd9Em7Cadd9
And they twist and they turn, and they hold their breath 'til it's blue

And they can't turn away like I can't, when you're lookin' like you do

Well looky Black Betty, what they tying to you

You did the very thing, baby, that I asked you not to do

I hope the money fills the holes cause see the roof is caving in

My heart, my heart, you're the moon and her shining light

Darkness in void of form, like you were keeping me alive

And they want you to doubt every trust that you've known
Cadd9Em7
And they wanna find the holes in the armor exposed
G
And they come on whispering,
Bm
If you just do this for me...
Cadd9D
And turn and show their teeth just before they're sinking in
Em7DCadd9
And better than described and deeper the descent
GF#/D
I never thought we'd have to learn to doubt our friends
Em7DCadd9
And better than described, so much deeper the descent
GF#/D
I never thought we'd have to learn to doubt our friends
