Intro:

Am

Verse 1:
    Am               C
Well I guess I stand corrected on the topic of despair
    G                 F
Well I must've been mistaking it for the smell of your fresh air
     Am                  C
I must've thought wrong when I said that you're holier than thou
   G                     F
Your attitude was just quite rude and you should come down off of your cloud
      Am                 C
But you're too goddamn self righteous for the righteous hand of God
      G            F
You're the ultimate example of why not to spare the rod
     Am                     C
It ain't your fault that you're like this, thats the thing that I've told myself
      G                    F
A million times with words that rhymed in songs of you and songs of hell

Chorus:
          Am C  G          F             Am  C
And it ain't no wonder this bridge was bound to burn and baby I don't understand
   G       F           Am  C    G      F
Quitе what I did to earn such a cruel cruel lovеr, oh and I'm an honest man
   G                        F
Just playin' the hand I'm dealt 'cause the way that I felt
         Am
Baby it ain't no wonder

Verse 2:
     Am            C
When you look into the mirror what is it that you see
   G                    F
Your forked tongue hides in your mouth but you still look a lot like me
       Am                  C
But there is one big distinct difference and thats another thing inside
    G                   F
Thats a stone inside inside your body baby for every time that you lied
       Am                C
And you were probably never faithful you were probably never true
 G                      F
I regret a lot of the things that I said but I could see right through you
     Am               C
You are just so damn transparent, oh and you are so damn vein
    G                 F
And it drives me up a great big wall that I can't say your name

Chorus:
          Am C  G          F             Am  C
And it ain't no wonder this bridge was bound to burn and baby I don't understand
   G       F           Am  C    G      F
Quitе what I did to earn such a cruel cruel lovеr, oh and I'm an honest man
   G                        F
Just playin' the hand I'm dealt 'cause the way that I felt
         Am
Oh baby it ain't no wonder

Verse 3:
    Am             C
Well I am no great example, oh I'm perfect by no means
 G                      F
I drink too much and I laugh too loud 'til I'm burstin' at the seams
      Am             C
But I'm in no way on my high horse, oh now I'm kinda strapped for cash
   G                    F
But I make ends meet when I have to baby and I spend the rest on hash
    Am             C
But at least I am not tainted oh and rotten to the core
  G                 F
At least I did not stab your back at least I'm not a whole
   Am               C
Lotta trouble soaked in beauty, oh and cigarettes and smiles
   G                   F
Oh at least I was the one that was willing to walk the extra mile

Chorus:
          Am C  G          F             Am  C
And it ain't no wonder this bridge was bound to burn and baby I don't understand
   G       F           Am  C    G      F
Quitе what I did to earn such a cruel cruel lovеr, oh and I'm an honest man
   G                        F
Just playin' the hand I'm dealt 'cause the way that I felt
         Am
Oh baby it ain't no wonder
