how you done [A] me wrong I grew [E] strong
I [Bm] learned [E] how to get along And [A] so [Em] you're back from [D] outer space
I just walked in to find you here without [C] that look upon your face
I [F] should have changed my fucking lock I [B] would have made you leave your [Gbm] key
If [E] I'd have known for just one second you'd be [Bm] back to bother [A] me
Oh [C] now, [G] go [Dm] walk out the door Just [G] turn around
Now [C] you're not welcome anymore [F] Weren't you the one who [B] tried to break me with desire?
