Strum
D-DU-UDU
 As I  cave into  temptation
 I've strayed  across  the line
Keep  it under wraps  in the cold  store
Put  it to the back  of your mind
Put  it to the back  of your mind
By  some miracle,  I just  got away with it
 I've clawed  it back again
By  some miracle,  I just  got away with it
 I've clawed  it back
   - /  -  -  x2]
 I'm crawling back again
 There's a black  dog down  in the basement
 It's barking out  my name
 Snapping  at my heels  when I falter
Kick  it, but it won't  go away
Kick  it, but it  won't go away
By  some miracle,  I just  got away with it
 I've clawed  it back again
By  some miracle,  I just  got away with it
 I've clawed  it back
 I'm crawling  back again
 - /  -  - /]
 Put it back, put it back
 Put it where you found it
