Verse 1:
Bbm      Db         Gb      F7
 I met a woman with lips so red
Bbm         Db         Gb    F7
  A face so lined like spiderwebs
    Bbm       Db         Gb         F7
I'll always remember the things she said
             Bbm                Db
They were so wise, she ope'd my eyes
         Gb           (nc)
And I'll never close again
Bbm          Db              Gb              F7
 Oh, how she sighed when she stubbed her cigarette
Bbm        Db          Gb              F7
 I felt compelled to enquire of her success
Bbm         Db             Gb       F7            F7
 How do you do, how do you be so in love with yourself?

Tell me please 'cause I need help

Chorus:
(nc)
She said
      Bbm             Db
Every time you are succeedin'
           Gb                Ab
There's an old man somewhere seethin'
    Fm                Eb                 Ebm
And spite's as good a reason to take his power
         Bbm           Db
When you hate the body you are in
    Gb                  Ab
Oh, love, you're actin' just for him
      Fm                  Eb                 Ebm
As he counts his gold and green in his ivory tower
    Bbm                Db
Our fear, it lines his pockets, love
   Gb                 Ab
So take that rage and bottle up
    Fm           Eb            Ebm
And put a drop into his cup of wine
    Bbm                 Db
You don't need him, you don't need me
          Gb               Ab
With that poisoned bottle, you'll be free
       Fm                  Eb             Ebm
But be damn sure you don't mix it up with mine

Verse 2:
Bbm      Db              Gb      F7
 I met a young girl with eyes so bright
Bbm        Db            Gb      F7
 She was already getting sick of life
Bbm            Db             Gb     F7
 Her arms were laden with his merchandise
             Bbm             Db               Gb
She asked me why I no longer try and waste my time

Chorus:
F7
And I said "Spite!"
            Bbm             Db
Cause every time you are succeedin'
           Gb                Ab
There's an old man somewhere seethin'
    Fm                Eb                 Ebm
And spite's as good a reason to take his power
         Bbm           Db
When you hate the body you are in
    Gb                  Ab
Oh, love, you're actin' just for him
      Fm                  Eb                 Ebm
As he counts his gold and green in his ivory tower
    Bbm                Db
Our fear, it lines his pockets, love
   Gb                 Ab
So take that rage and bottle up
    Fm           Eb            Ebm
And put a drop into his cup of wine
    Bbm                 Db
You don't need him, you don't need me
          Gb               Ab
With that poisoned bottle, you'll be free
       Fm                  Eb             Ebm
But be damn sure you don't mix it up with mine
   Db                  B              Gb
Be damn sure you don't mix it up with mine

Outro:
Bbm      Db         Gb      F7
 I met a woman with lips so red
Bbm        Db         Gb         F7
  Always remember the things she said
