A Poisoned Heart And A Twisted Memory Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

EO you Btook my word and you took my key

You took my pride and you took my dignitAy

C♯How can I still preF♯mtend to be what a man should Ebe A E A E

Whatever I do there’s someone there to loAok

C♯You just can’t shake a F♯mman the way that I’ve been EshookA E A E

Chorus

Now is Bthis the way it’s supF♯mposed to be

Is Bthis the way it’s supF♯mposed to be

A Bpoisoned heart and a Atwisted BmemoEry A E A E (repeat)

O see that lifer doing his time

If I could have his place and he’d have mine

We’d be no better off on either side of the line

Well, you took my job and you put me to sleep

You feed me money, you treat me like a creep

Wish I could get away but I must be in it too deep

Chorus

Well, you tell me you’re going to get in touch

You send me a letter that reads like double-Dutch

You say, you’re bound to lose, you’re a little such-and-such

You got my number, you got my rank

You drained my head, you drained my petrol tank

And when I die of shame I won’t even know who to thank

Chorus
