Back Stabbin Betty

Cage The Elephant


A augmentedA        G+G
A augmentedA poor guy that man John Thomas
C majorC     D MajorD
His woman truly was a devil
A augmentedA     G+G
She wasn't all that honest
C majorC      D MajorD
She tore him down on every level

A augmentedA         G+G
You're a no, good, lazy motherfucker
    C majorC      D MajorD
Got a, shit job you worthless motherfucker
     A augmentedA         G+G
You're a, a dead beat, feel sorry for your mother
  C majorC       D MajorD
If I had time, I'd trade you for another

     E MajorE
He don't like that
       D MajorD
He wants his life back
          A augmentedA      G+G      C majorC      D MajorD
He wants to go back home

A augmentedA      G+G
He tried so hard to please her
C majorC      D MajorD
He sold his soul to keep her happy
A augmentedA       G+G
But nothin' he did impressed her
C majorC     D MajorD
She always left him feelin' shitty
      A augmentedA    G+G
This is it, no, this can't be all you bought me
    C majorC           D MajorD
Said I'm, I'm high class, and this is what you brought me
   A augmentedA        G+G
Gonna, strike low just like my momma taught me
    C majorC         D MajorD
You're a low life, you're lucky that you got me

     E MajorE
He don't like that
       D MajorD
He wants his life back
          A augmentedA      G+G      C majorC      D MajorD
He wants to go back home

A augmentedA       G+G
Down deep, way down inside him
C majorC      D MajorD
The will to leave was growing stronger
A augmentedA       G+G
And he bit his tongue for so long
C majorC      D MajorD
He couldn't hold back any longer

     A augmentedA     G+G
You're a two, faced ruthless instigator
    C majorC     D MajorD
You're a low down, triflin' masquerader
     A augmentedA      G+G
You're a cold bitch, controlling conversator
    C majorC       D MajorD
This is too much, I'm out I'll see ya later

     E MajorE
She don't like that
        D MajorD
But he got his life back
       E MajorE
No she don't like that
     D MajorD
But he's right back on track
           A augmentedA
I said he went back, home
