 Cautions issued, he stood
 A
 Shooting the messengers
 Bm            A         Gmaj7    D
 They tried to warn him about her

Chorus:
D           A
 Cross your thoughtless heart
Bm    Gmaj7
 Only liquor anoints you

 She's the albatross
Bm      Gmaj7
 She is here to destroy you

 Bm       D
 Wise man once said
  Gmaj7   A

  Bm       D          Gmaj7    A
 "One less temptress, one less dagger to sharpen"
 Bm        D     Gmaj7
 Locked me up in towers

 You're in terrible danger

Bridge:
Em Gmaj7           D         A     Em
     And when that sky rains fire on you
Gmaj7          D        A
 And you're persona non grata
Em Gmaj7           D        A          Em
     I'll tell you how I've been there too
Gmaj7     D          A
 And that none of it matters

Chorus:
 Bm       D         Gmaj7
 Wise men once read fake news
 A
 And they believed it
 Bm      D            Gmaj7
 Jackals raised their hackles

 You couldn't conceive it
 Bm       D        Gmaj7             A                     Bm
 You were sleeping soundly when they dragged you from your bed
                D           Gmaj7 A
 And I tried to warn you about them

Chorus:
D     A
 So I crossed my thoughtless heart
Bm         Gmaj7
 Spread my wings like a parachute
D        A
 I'm the albatross
Bm       Gmaj7
 I swept in at the rescue
D          A
 The devil that you know
Bm         Gmaj7
 Looks now more like an angel
D        A
 I'm the life you chose
Bm            Gmaj7        D   A
 And all this terrible danger
Bm    Gmaj7        D   A
 This terrible danger
D              A             Bm   G
 So cross your thoughtless heart
D          A
 She's the albatross
Bm      Gmaj7
 She is here to destroy you
