Pedro The Lion - The Poison
Album: Achilles Heel (the upcoming album)

This is a beautiful song. Fairly easy to. I'm about sure this is 99& accurate,
you can fiddle with 7ths and what not but just have fun with and sing and it with feeling.
BTW don't forget that Am in the instrumental.

Ok enough of that bullshit, let's get going:


                       
the poison makes its way through my body slowly 

                         
to the pleasure centers of my brain 

                                      
if you were here i would admit that i'm an asshole

                                                              
but now it's over and i can't stay sober though it isn't like i've tried

on the front porch or on an airplane on vacation 

                      
or out for dinner in a nearby town 

        **                         
i was so proud just to have you sitting with me 

                              
but now it's over and i can't stay sober 

                                  
pour and swallow follow one drink with another 

                                   
i'll keep on til you agree to come back over 

                               
or until there are x's on my eyes

                                             
my old man always swore that hell would have no flame

                                                                     
just a front row seat to watch you true love pack her things and drive away
