The Albatross

≣≣
 
-Verse-
[Bm]Wise men [A]once said
[D]"Wild winds are [G]death to the candle"
[Bm]A rose by [A]any [D]other name [G]is a scandal
[Bm]Cautions [A]issued, [D]he stood
[A]Shooting the messengers
[Bm]They tried to [A]warn him about[D] her[G]
 
-Chorus-
[D]Cross your [A]thoughtless heart
[Bm]Only [G]liquor anoints you
[D]She's the [A]albatross
[Bm]She is here to [G]destroy you
 
-Verse-
[Bm]Wise men [A]once said
"[D]One bad seed [G]kills the garden"
"[Bm]One less [A]temptress
[D]One less [G]dagger to sharpen"
[Bm]Locked me [A]up in [D]towers
[G]But I'd visit in your dreams
[Bm]And they tried to [A]warn you [D]about [G]me
 
-Chorus-
[D]Cross your [A]thoughtless heart
[Bm]Only liquor [G]anoints you
[D]She's the [A]albatross
[Bm]She is here [G]to destroy you
[D]Devils that [A]you know
[Bm]Raise worse [G]hell than a stranger
[D]She's the [A]death you chose
[Bm]You're in [G]terrible danger
 
-Bridge-
And when that [D]sky rains[A] fire on [Bm]you[G]
And [D]you're persona [A]non grata[Bm] [G]
I'll [D]tell you how I've [A]been there [Bm]too[G]
And [D]that none of it [A]matters[Bm] [G]
 
-Verse-
[Bm]Wise men [A]once read [D]fake news
[G]And they believed it
[Bm]Jackals [A]raised their[D] hackles
[G]You couldn't conceive it
[Bm]You were [A]sleeping [D]soundly
[G]When they dragged you from your bed
[Bm]And I tried to [A]warn you about [D]them[G]
 
-Outro-
So I [D]crossed my [A]thoughtless heart
[Bm]Spread my wings [G]like a parachute
[D]I'm the [A]albatross
[Bm]I swept in [G]at the rescue
[D]The devil that[A] you know
[Bm]Looks now more [G]like an angel
[D]I'm the [A]life you chose
And [Bm]all this [G]terrible danger
So [D]cross your [A]thoughtless heart
[Bm]She's the [G]albatross
[D]She is here to [A]destroy you
