[Verse 1]
CLouise onlyF got from me innocent poetry
CAlthough sheG played to not listen
CBut stilFl I can hear myself speak as if no one else
CEver could Goffer the Csame
[Verse 2]
CSome say shFe knowingly tastes like a recipe
CAlthough so Gfoolish and willing
CI said BFabe I can picture you bend as if wanting to
CBow as the Gcurtain weCnt down
[Chorus]
FCoddle some mCen, they'll remember you bitterly
FFuck 'em, they'll Gcome back for more
FI asked my LCouise would she leave and so cripple me
FThen came a knGock at the door
[Verse 3]
C“I came for my woman,”F he came with a razor blade
CBound like uGs all for the ocean
CI hope tFhat she's happy I'm blamed for the death of
CThe man whoG would takCe her from me
[Verse 4]
CSome they sFaw in me innocent poetry
CSome, say thGey'll never be certain
CBut stilFl it's been written, a history of lovers
CGiven and tGaken in inCk
[Chorus]
FCoddle some mCen, they'll remember you fittingly
FCut ‘em, they'll cGome back for more
FI asked my LCouise would she leave and so cripple me
FThen came the Gknock at the door
[Verse 5]
CLouise cameF to rescue me; listen, the irony:
CBlood made hGer heart change its beating
CI hope that Fshe's happy I'm blamed for the death of
CThe man she foundG better than me C
