Red Hands Chords

(ver. 3)
The Dear Hunter
During the verse feel free to swap the G with a G6 if it so pleases you. Same thing with 
Em and Em7.
Also noteworthy, During the "Pulling out my heart" part, after you play an F just slide 
up to G.



Verse 1:

C                   Em
Even if you'd never strayed from me,
C                    Em
I'd question your fidelity.
F                    Dm           G
There'd always be a shroud of suspicion
F                    Dm   G
And my heart's a liability
C                          Em
With your hands maroon, so freshly red,
C                    Em
You'd wrap your lips around my neck.
F                       Dm         G
Try and force to love the thought of me.
F                    Dm   G
Simple motions make me ill.


Chorus:

Am                   C
Was it bitter when you tossed and turned
       F
On his undercover mattress?
Dm                        G
Did it feel so good? Hope it felt so good.
Am                               C
Don't know what I'd do if you lost sleep over little old me.
Dm
He's so much better.
                Em
They're all much better.
                 F
Take off your sweater, your shoes,
          G
and your shirt and get to work.


Break:

C  Em7  C   Em7
Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba


Verse 2:

C                    Em
Maybe this is just a work of art.
C                     Em
Scripted players in a play of lust.
F                          Dm        G
Hope the end is well worth waiting for
F                           G
Everything you wished there'd be


Chorus:

Am                   C
Was it bitter when you tossed and turned
           F
On his undercover mattress?
Dm                        G
Did it feel so good? Hope it felt so good.
Am                               C
Don't know what I'd do if you lost sleep over little old me.
Dm
He's so much better.
                Em
They're all much better.
                F
Take off your sweater, your shoes,
         G
and your shirt and get to work.


Break:
C  Em7  C  Em7


C      Em7               Dm
Oh my god, what have I done?
C                        Em7             Dm
Now my darling, put your clothes back on.
C      Em7               Dm
Oh my god, what have I done?
C                        Em            Dm
Now my darling, put your clothes back on.
F                                            C         Em
Cause you can't be caught red-handed if you're not red-handed.
F                                    C        Em
My darling, I would never say those words to you,
F                  G (slide up from F)    Em          Dm 
I was pulling out my heart so I could pin it to my sleeve
     F                              C   Em7
On display for you to see, I'm on display.
F                                              C         Em7
Because you can't be caught red-handed if you're not red-handed.
F                                   C          Em7
My darling, I would never say those words to you,
F                   G              Em              Dm
I was pulling out my heart so I could pin it to my sleeve
     F                              C   Em7
On display for you to see, I'm on display.


C      Em7               Dm
Oh my god, what have I done?
C                        Em7            Dm
Now my darling, put your clothes back on.
C      Em7               Dm
Oh my god, what have I done?
C                        Em
Now my darling, put your clothes back on.
F                        G
Now my darling, put your clothes
F                                               C        Em
Because you can't be caught red-handed if you're not red-handed.
F                                  C          Em
My darling, I would never say those words to you,
F                  G               Em              Dm
I was pulling out my heart so I could pin it to my sleeve
     F                               C   Em   F
On display for you to see, I'm on display.
