[Intro]
Em B x4
[Verse 1]
Em
A lover spurned
Am
A lesson learned
B
On love you've got
Your fingers burnt
Em
Shed bitter tears
Am
Now love has turned
B
The sweet revenge
Em
Of a lover spurned
Em
A passing phase
Am
A week of love
B
But all at once
You had enough
Em
It pales so soon
Am
Waned with the moon
B
No deep concern
Em
For a lover spurned
[Chorus]
B7
She'll destroy you with her little games
Em
See you swallow all the blame
Am B7
Make you pay in many ways
Am Am/F# B7
For the pleasure of watching you squirm
B7
She'll tell her friends to treat you rough
Em
That you just weren't good enough
Am B7
Make the going really tough
Am Am/F# B7
For the pleasure of watching you burn in hell

[Speach]
It was all so cosy for you
You had a wife two children
And a beautiful house
And mewell you wanted me
When it suited your needs
And nownow I have nothing
Just a handful of faded photographs
Nothing but a cold empty heart
But I'm not easily forgotten
I'll appear when you least expect
To make you pay
You asked for it that way
[Chorus]
B7
She'll come to get you with a knife
Em
Write poison letters to your wife
Am B7
Totally destroy your life
Am Am/F# B7
For the pleasure of watching you squirm
B7
She'll make a fool of you at work
Em
Drag your name through the dirt
Am B7
Make sure that it really hurts
Am Am/F# B7
For the pleasure of watching you burn in hell
