song after that for the intro.
You used to leave your scent (GEDG)
On his whiskey soaked collar (GEDG)
You both would paint the town (EDBmE)
Drink up his very last dollar (GEDG)
And then you loved him for fun (EDEG)
And rode away when it was done (GEDG)
Now hes confused and I know why (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
Aint that mud in your eye (GEDG)
(Sturm w/everything muted for the next lyric)
(Some of these lyrics towards the end of this verse are sang while playing the riffs,
thats why it appears one riff to be left over at the end of this progression, starting at
realized you were no longer free)
Aint like rain (GEDG)
Remember lively little Richard. (GEDG)
But his men were painting town (EDBmE)
You were in need of attention (GEDG)
So he thought hed take you on down (EDEG)
And there you first saw me (GEDG)
And realized you were no longer free (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
Cuz true love good girls cant deny (GEDG)
It comes and goes like mud in youre eye. (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
(After that progression and the last lyric there comes another GEDG
And from here out chords are played during singing instead of prior)
Sometimes a victim can run
But not when both have been von
And I aint no stranger
I built you up to shoot you down
Once you could thrill me
Now Im the jury
And youll be a cinch to convict
Your boys gonna make the great escape
While your laid bare on the ground
This vengeance had to and in crime
I built you up and shoot you down
You know Im not usually that kind
But you didnt know he was a brother of mine
But Ill just laugh if you cry
Now aint that mud in your eye
