A#m                F#
Shake my bones and rattle my grave
C#                       G#
He's gone diggin' in the bitch again
A#m              F#
Back tattoo of a big black snake
C#                        G#
Don't go telling me she's just a friend

A#m
Hey, lil' mama
F#                   C#  G#
Who you gonna poison now
D#
Hey, lil' papa
                     F#
Who you gonna run to now

Chorus:
            A#m       F#
It's been a long time coming
         C#        F       A#m
And this house is burning down
            F#         C#    F
Don't know how I ever loved you
      A#m       F#
I was blind and running
      C#        G#
Into what's in front of me
   D#
If I only knew
      F#                      A#m
That happy ever after wasn't you

Hurt me
Hate me
Throw me down
15 years I give you me
To lie alone in this red neck town
A better lover did I have to be

Hey lil mama who ya gonna poison now?
And hey lil papa who ya gonna run to now?

Chorus:
It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Dont know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running
Into what's in front of me
And I never knew
That happy ever after wasn't you

It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Dont know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running
Into what's in front of me
If I only knew
That happy ever after wasn't you

C#         G#           A#m F#
Happy ever after wasn't you
C#         G#           A#m F#
Happy ever after wasn't you
C#         G#           D#
Happy ever after wasn't you
