[Eb]
[Bb]
[C] [Bb] [F] If [Bb] today weren't just [Eb] like any day, [Bb] perhaps I'd try
To shed this worn [Eb] out skin so thick [Bb] and nervous lie
[Eb] But I came home [F] to facial rise [Bb] and steel
[Eb] If [Bb] looks could kill, [Eb] I would [Bb] be gone today
There's a fire that's burning [Eb] in your [Bb] eyes, not in your heart
[Eb] [Bb] And I can fan [Eb] the flames, but I [F] can't dig this far
And [Eb] I don't like [F] the way I make [Bb] you feel
[Eb] If looks [Bb] could kill, [Eb] I would [Bb] be long since gone
[Eb] And if looks [Gm] could kill, [Cm] then I'd be pushing [F] [C] up [F] your daisy
[Eb] If looks [Gm] could kill, [C] then I [Bb] would not [F] be [Gm] going [F] [Bb] crazy
[F] [Dm]
[F] There's [Gm] [F] [Bb] a stool that I've [Eb] been glued to for [Bb] so many nights
And a bar to pour [Eb] my heart out on [F] and make it right
[Dm] [Eb] And I don't have [F] to tell myself [Bb] it's real
[Eb] If looks [Bb] could kill, [Eb] my heart [Bb] would beat no more

[Eb] if looks [Gm] could kill, [Cm] then I'd [Bb] be deep [F] in [C]
peaceful [F] slumber
[Eb] If looks [Bb] could kill, [Cm] then I [Bb] would not [F] be [Gm]
[F] going [Bb] [F] undead
[Eb] [F] [Gm] [F] And [Bb] there's a gun out in [Eb] our hallway covered [Bb] up in [Eb] rust
[Bb] That works well enough [Eb] to turn this [F] heartache into dust
So [Eb] go on and let [F] your lawyer make [Bb] a deal
[Eb] If [Bb] looks could kill, [Eb] if [Bb] looks could kill
[Eb] I [Bb] would be long since gone
