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
