 You came  and went away
 intro riff
 Left me wide-eyed wondering what I know
 Like  rain, you crept away
 intro riff
 Left me high and dry on down the road
  Em walk up to G
 And I'm waiting for the punchline
 intro riff
 But I've been here for seven days
 It's a shameful price to pay
 Then I wasn't, was still dead and broke
 The way I feel today
 Makes me wonder if life is truly a joke
 Well I'm waiting for the punchline
 And I've been here for seven days
 I'm waiting for the puncline
 And I've been here for seven days
 >  >
My  daddy told  me about  the likes of you
My  mama told  me about  the likes of you
My  preacher told  me about  the likes of  you
 intro riff
 I tried to tell myself about the likes of you
 Sometimes I wonder how
 You do the things you do and sleep at night
 The lines are clearly drawn
 And so is you and you are always right
 And I'm waiting for the punchline
 But I've been here for seven days
 Sometimes I roll the dice
 You pack your bags and steal away the night
 And I will always know
 The way you lie and it will be your life
 And I'm waiting for the puncline
 But I've been here for seven days
 And I'm waiting for the punchline
 But I've been here for seven days
 My daddy told me about the likes of you
 My mama told me about the likes of you
 My preacher told me about the likes of you
 I tried to tell myself about the likes of you
 Jam progression:  >  >  >
 I'm fascinated with people who live their lives in chains
 I've always hated the way you lie and play a high fast game
 And if I waited, would my life be such a cryin' shame?
 I'm fascinated with the life of lies and shame

You [A]came and went away

[D]                 [C]                     intro riff
Left me wide-eyed wondering what I know
Like[A] rain, you crept away
[D]                 [C]                     intro riff
Left me high and dry on down the road
        Em                            walk up to G
And I'm waiting for the punchline
[G]             [C]                         intro riff
But I've been here for seven days

It's a shameful price to pay
Then I wasn't, was still dead and broke
The way I feel today
Makes me wonder if life is truly a joke
Well I'm waiting for the punchline
And I've been here for seven days
I'm waiting for the puncline
And I've been here for seven days

Sometimes I wonder how
You do the things you do and sleep at night
The lines are clearly drawn
And so is you and you are always right

You pack your bags and steal away the night
And I will always know
The way you lie and it will be your life
And I'm waiting for the puncline
But I've been here for seven days
And I'm waiting for the punchline
But I've been here for seven days
