Poison Lovers Chords by Steve Earle

_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I was almost out of here, _ nearly there [C#] this time. _
[D#] I saw [C#] you in [F#] my rear view mirror and I pulled up on the [C#] dime. _ _
[D#m] But nothing [F#] _ ventured, nothing lost.
You can't say we didn't [C#] try.
I [D#m] bet it isn't [A#] the less [F#] you weigh the cost _ of every cure we [C#] craft. _
_ [F#] _ _ Why do we do this to [D#m] each _ _ _ other? _
_ [C#] _ _ I guess we were always [B] poisonous.
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
If you could look me in the eye and tell me what [C#] you see, _
_ [D#m] Maybe [C#] you [F#] can tell me why I let you torture [C#] me. _
_ [D#m] I [C#] know that [F#] your lips are soft and you sing the [C#] sweetest songs, _
[D#m] But I've [C#] been listening [F#] long enough, my heart has turned [C#] to stone. _
_ [F#] _ _ Why do we do this [D#m] to each _ other? _ _
_ [C#] _ _ I guess we were always [B] poisonous.
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _

_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Another time, another place, another winter [C#] rain. _
_ [D#m] We cover [C#] every [F#] track and trace, I'll find you're just the [C#] same. _ _
_ [D#m] And even [C#] if [F#] we made our peace, and went our separate [C#] ways, _
_ [D#m] You'd [C#] go west [F#] and I'd go east and meet here in this [C#] place. _
_ [F#] _ _ Why do we do this to [D#m] each _ _ _ other? _
_ [C#] _ _ I guess we were always [B] poisonous.
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ Why do we do this to [D#m] each _ other? _ _
_ [C#] _ _ I guess we were always [B] poisonous.
