Audra Mae - Snakebite

^EmI heard about the venom ^GAt a broke down Five and Dime ^AmThe rain cried down the window ^BJust like those tears of mine

^EmJust then a gray haired woman ^GSat down right next to me ^AmShe heard me cry and looked in my eye ^BAnd said, "Baby, I got what you need"

^AmYou need a snakebite And once you g^Emet that venom in your veins ^AmThey'll come alive I know just w^Emhat you go through every day ^GThat pain inside, I can m^Bake it right ^EmWith the snakebite

^EmShe handed me a map with streets ^GI said, "I've never seen" ^AmAnd she told me, "My friend, this town has secrets ^BDarker than you could ever dream"

^EmI went to some back alley ^GBehind a liquor store ^AmIf someone had told me how tight it would hold me ^BI never would have open the door

^AmI got the snakebite And once I ^Emhad that venom in my veins ^AmI came alive Oh, you don't know w^Emhat I go through everyday ^GThe pain inside, I'm gonna m^Bake it right ^EmWith the snakebite

^EmIt hasn't been a year now ^GAnd all my hair is gray ^AmYou know, it's funny But I d^Bon't remember my own name

^EmI'd go and hurt that woman ^GWho put this pain in me ^AmBut my heart is weak, it wants that venom ^BShe comes around 'cause she knows I need

^AmThe snakebite Oh, I gotta ^Emget that venom in my veins ^AmTo feel alive Oh, you don't know w^Emhat I go through every day ^GThis pain inside, I'm gonna m^Bake it right ^AmWith the snakebite Oh, I gotta get that ve^Emnom in my veins ^AmAnd come alive Oh, you don't know w^Emhat I go through every day ^GThat pain inside, I'm gonna m^Bake it right ^EmWith the snakebite ^BOh, I got the snakebi^Emte
