[Bb] I survived the [Ab] dinner And the air went [Eb] thinner
I retired to [Bb] the briar By the pool that gets so loud
If I die this [Cm] instant Taken from a [Eb] distance
They will probably [Bb] list it down Among other things around town
Got my [Eb] rings around me I got baby to [Bb] pound me
I see stars in the week My baby cries and lays me down
In the skies over Black Venice I see eyes of the white mantis
The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound
And all the LA [Fm] women [Bb] Fall asleep while [Eb] swimming
I got [Bb] paid to fish on my pit Then one day I lost the job
And I cried a [Ab] little I got [Bb] fried a little
Then she laid her eyes on mine She said, babe, you better run
[Fm] Got my [Eb] rings [Bb] around me I got baby to pound me
I see stars in the week My baby cries and lays me down
In the skies over [Eb] Black Venice I see [Bb] eyes of the white mantis
The surprise of the week Is that I never [Bbm] heard the sound
Tunnel vision [Eb] lights my [Bb] way [Bbm]
Leave my little [Eb] love [Bb] today
Free fall advances [Ab] I'm the more [Bb] honored dancer
[Eb]
[Bb] I was teething on roses [Ab] I was in guns [Bb] and doses
Under [Bbm] the withering white [Eb] skies of [Bb] Humiliation
Under the withering white [Eb] skies of [Bb] Humiliation
Tunnel [Bbm]
vision [Eb] lights [Bb] my way Leave [Bbm] [Bb] my little [Eb]
