Verse:
 E7E7    FdimFdim
I let beast in too soon,
  E7E7        FdimFdim
I don't know how to live without my
     E7E7    FdimFdim
Hands on his throat; I fight him
  E7E7     FdimFdim
Always and still
 E7E7       FdimFdim
O darling, it's so sweet,
       E7E7      FdimFdim
You think you know how crazy
   E7E7  FdimFdim
How crazy I am

  E7E7       FdimFdim
You say you don't spook easy,
     E7E7     FdimFdim
You won't go, but I know
   E minorEm      GaugGaug ... G+G GdimGdim
And I pray that you will

Verse 2:
  E7E7     FdimFdim
I may be soft in your palm
    E7E7      FdimFdim
But I'll soon grow hungry for a fight
E7E7     FdimFdim
And I will not let you
 E7E7  FdimFdim
Win. ...
  E7E7      FdimFdim
My pretty mouth will frame the
    E7E7      FdimFdim
Phrases that will disprove your
   E7E7  FdimFdim ... E7E7 FdimFdim
Faith in man.

  E7E7      FdimFdim
So if you catch me trying to
   E7E7     FdimFdim
Find my way into your heart from
 E7E7    FdimFdim ... E7E7 FdimFdim
Under your skin...

Fast as you can, baby

Scratch me out, free yourself
C majorC    C minorCm  G+G
Fast as you can

Bridge:
G+G    FF    Cmaj7Cmaj7
Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift
G+G        FF    Am7Am7
But most of the time, it does
G+G         FF       Am7Am7
And I get to the place where I'm begging for a lift
    E minorEm           G+G
Or I'll drown in the wonders and the was

G+G         FF     Cmaj7Cmaj7
And I'll be your girl, if you say it's a gift
G+G           FF     Am7Am7
And you give me some more of your drugs
 G+G           FF      Am7Am7
Yeah, I'll be your pet, if you just tell me it's a gift
      E minorEm       G+G
'Cause I'm tired of whys, choking on whys,
G minorGm         Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Just need a little because, because,

Instrumental:
E7E7 FdimFdim

Verse 3:
  E7E7    FdimFdim
I let the beast in and then;
  E7E7     FdimFdim
I even tried forgiving him,
  E7E7       FdimFdim
But it's too soon, so I'll fight
    E7E7      FdimFdim
Again, again, again, again, again.
E7E7   FdimFdim
And for a little
   E7E7     FdimFdim
While more I'll soar the
    E7E7      FdimFdim
Uneven wind, complain and blame the
  E7E7   FdimFdim
Sterile land
  E7E7      FdimFdim
But if you're getting any
  E7E7      FdimFdim
Bright ideas, quiet dear,
   E minorEm     GaugGaug ... G+G GdimGdim
I'm blooming within

Chorus:
C majorC      C minorCm
Fast as you can, baby
G+G       GdimGdim
Wait watch me, I'll be out
C majorC     C minorCm
Fast as I can, maybe
G+G      GdimGdim
Late but at least about
C majorC      C minorCm
Fast as you can, leave me
G+G       GdimGdim
Let this thing run its route
C majorC    C minorCm  G+G GdimGdim
Fast as you can
C majorC    C minorCm  G+G GdimGdim
Fast as you can
C majorC    C minorCm  G+G GdimGdim
Fast as you can
C majorC      C minorCm
Fast as you can
