Poor Desperate Fools

Intro: Am 


[Refrão]
 
Am                                    E 
How many times will you tell me these lies? 
                      Am 
How many times will I cry? 
Am 
How many times will you threaten suicide? 
E                     Am 
How many times will I cry? 
 


[Verso 1]
 
  Dm 
I sit in bright red 
Dm 
In those fires that I spread 
        Am 
Burning bright with a new one to love 
        Dm 
And you lay in your bed 
Dm 
With your gun at your head 
      Am                             E 
Still desperate for my cold, selfish love

Am                                    E 
How many times will you tell me these lies? 
                      Am 
How many times will I cry? 
Am 
How many times will you threaten suicide? 
E                     Am 
How many times will I cry? 
 


[Verso 2]
 
   Dm 
My heart´s black and blue 
Dm 
It´s never been true 
     Am 
I´ve lied and I´ve cheated on you 
    Dm 
And now that you know 
Dm 
All the lies that I told 
    Am                        E 
You say now your life here is through

Am                                    E 
How many times will you tell me these lies? 
                      Am 
How many times will I cry? 
Am 
How many times will you threaten suicide? 
E                     Am 
How many times will I cry? 
 


[Verso 3]
 
     Dm 
I´ll tell you it´s true 
Dm 
Death´s waiting for you 
       Am 
How he loves those poor desperate fools 
    Dm 
Now go on ahead 
Dm 
Put it right in your head 
          Am                      E 
There´s a better life waiting for you 
E 
It´s better then I´ve given you 
                         Am 
Yeah hell is waiting for you
