Intro: A7 D
 
D
It wears you thin
 
Unpacks a bag and it settles in
G
Ten times an hour you'll wish it dead
D
Ask it to leave but it stays instead
 
D
So unkind
 
Acting as if you could read its mind
G
Making it hard to explain without
D
Finding new things to com-plain about
 
A
Sharp teeth test your skin
D
Too late, you let an angel in
 
D
It's all been done
 
So many accidents,only one
G
Paints you the picture you want to see
D
Cover one eye and look carefully
 
D
Big surprise
 
It doesn't care about second tries
G
You're afraid whatever choice you make
D
Won't be exactly the right mistake
 
A
Sharp teeth test your skin
Bm
Too late, you let an angel in
F#
I bet you feel tapped out
D G
and nothing left to talk a-bout
Gm
I guess you're right
D
You fraud
 
D
It tells you lies
 
You say you won't but you compromise
G
Just don't imagine you'll ever win
D
Any race you aren't running in
 
D
It follows through
 
Four in the morning it's calling you
G
What's the over-under on getting it
D
Done with out always re-gretting it?
 
A
Sharp teeth test your skin
D
Too late, you let an angel in
 
D
