You left off where I got on.
Now temptation's weak and my pa-tience is strong.
Used to be I was unkind.
Now I don't call and you don't mind.
A5v B5 G5 (Rhythm Fig. 1)
Thought it was wrong, wrong what she said.
Now you're right and I'm left for dead.
G6/9 A5v B5 G5
Thought it was dumb, dumb what I heard.
Now I'm eatin' every word.
Clang, bang, clang went the good guy at the door.
They put me in a cell with a concrete floor.
Wrapped a phone cord 'round my fist.
They abort my wrist and I cut where I kissed.

G6/9 A5v B5 G5
Thought it was dumb, dumb what I heard.
Now I'm eatin' every word.
Clang, bang, clang.
Clang, bang, clang.
Bang, clang (say say say say)
