Em                          G
We weren´t afraid of nothing, wasn´t nothing we couldn´t do
Am                                             D    
She held her breath once for seven minutes and never turned blue
Em                          G
She could burn a woman down if she felt she´d been unkind
Am                                        D
Or if she thought she was coming on to me, it drove her out of her mind

C            D              C              D                 Em
Oh yeah, it´s true just did what we did whenever we wanted to
            D              C                D
Yeah, it´s true, we just did what we did whenever we wanted to

Em Am Em Am

Em                         G
She was my very best friend, my biggest enemy
Am                                            D
On judgement day we could go either it was all the same you see
Em                         G
She was not afraid of Satan, in fact she thought he was a joke
Am                                           D
Said she´d tear off his tail and run her fist down his throat

C            D              C              D                 Em
Oh yeah, it´s true just did what we did whenever we wanted to
            D              C                D
Yeah, it´s true, we just did what we did whenever we wanted to

Em                         G
She was the apple of temptation, the apple of my eye
Am                          D
Used to rest on a bed of burning coats every single night
Em                         G
And I know she´s out there somewhere, she´s wrestling in the bones
Am                               D
With confetti in her hair and you can bet she´s not alone

C            D              C              D                Em
Oh yeah, it´s true just did what we did whenever we wanted to
            D              C                D                  Em
Yeah, it´s true, we just did what we did whenever we wanted to
