           E                  E7              A
when you drink my health in scented jasmine tea
     C#7                          D
You knifed me in my dirty filthy basement;

Take my arm, take my leg,
     D
oh, baby, don't you take my head

We all need someone we can bleed on, (yeh)
            E       E7                           A
and if you want it, baby, well you can bleed on me (yeh)
