Written by Elvis Costello
Intro: | E | B | E | B |
E
Said I love You 'til You don't know You're born
B
Said I'd love You 'til the far side of dawn
A
But in the morning, if You must leave
E
Don't leave with Your apologies
A
If You come back If I liked You at all
B
Remember I liked You to fall on Your knees
E
Liar liar You're My last desire
A
Thought Your kind of love was just a thorn of the rose
E
Tried to be faithful,Not hard enough I suppose
A
Tried hard to drown with a hum and a drum
In a pretty drug slum mire, tried bearing Your sighs
And Your sneers and Your frown
Tried wearing Your jewels and Your heels and Your crown
B E
But it was nothing but a twist of barbwire
B E
It was nothing but a twist of barbwire
B E | B |
It was nothing but a twist of barbwire
| E | B | E | B |
E
See I promise I'll be constantly clean
B
Did You think that I still say what I mean
A
Now You're keening and You have to decide
E
Will You open Your legs or Your eyes
A
Or do You pray now 'cos I pray all the time
B
As the soul can't escape what the heart may disguise
E
Liar liar You're My last desire
A
Thought Your kind of love was just a thorn of the rose
E
Tried to be faithful,Not hard enough I suppose
A
Tried hard to drown with a hum and a drum
In a pretty drug slum mire, tried bearing Your sighs
And Your sneers and Your frown
Tried wearing Your jewels and Your heels and Your crown
B E
But it was nothing but a twist of barbwire
B E
It was nothing but a twist of barbwire
B E
It was nothing but a twist of barbwire
B E | B |
But it was nothing but a twist of barbwire
