F#m        E                F#m
I did a sick, sick thing to my love. 
           F#m       E        F#m
My lack of loyalty, it swallowed her up. 
                  A
And she cooked me food.        
  D             E            F#m
She squirmed and turned like a skeleton key. 
             F#m       E             F#m
She left her man and attended to me. 

              A
Don't call me that. 
          D
Don't claim you love me,
           E                    F#m
'Cause you know that ain't true. 
        F#m               E              F#m
My dire affliction I'll attribute to you

   A
And you're finally free
        D           E            F#m
To twist and turn like a skeleton key. 

    A
You've gotta let me know. 
    A
You've gotta let me know. 


 F#m      E                  F#m
I did a horrible thing to that girl. 
           F#m        E                 F#m
I bread my misery and drowned it in her. 
               A
And she got me high, 
               DE                 F#m  
And I hardly noticed there were tears in her eyes. 


               F#m      E             F#m
And I miss you less and less everyday. 
   F#m                     E             F#m
It's true, the whiskey's helped to wash you away. 
  A
And it's clear to see, 

 D
You're nothing special,
 E        F#m
You're a skeleton key. 

                    A 
You've gotta let me know. 
            A 
You've gotta let me know. 
    A 
You've gotta let me know. 
    A 
You've gotta let me know. 

Whoo!

Ending: F#m, E, F#m (x 5)
