G C Am D
Verse 1:
G C Am D
Pick up my kid in a Jaguar, drop him off in a Mercedes Benz
G C Am D
When you look over your shoulder you're gonna see me through a different lens
G C Am D
By the time you get to Phoenix I'll be laughing in L.A.
G C Am D
By the time you find the right bottle of wine I'll be sipping my Courvoisier
Chorus:
G Am
Because revenge is sweet, but success is sweeter
C D
Take the salt from my wounds and put it in my margarita
G Am
I'm the new kid in the candy store
C D
By the time you want me back I won't want you anymore
Verse 2:
G Am
When my walking shoes were newer you played me at your game
C D
And when my tears were fewer you put the sham into my pain
G Am
And when I'm wrinkling the sheets With someone you don't know
C D
I'll be using your cold shoulder to chill the veuve cliqueau
Chorus:
G Am
Because revenge is sweet, but success is sweeter
C D
Take the salt from my wounds and put it in my margarita
G Am
I'm the new kid in the candy store
C D
By the time you want me back I won't want you anymore
Bridge:
C G
In for a penny, in for a pound
D
The flesh is weak and the spirit is hurt
C G
Even if the meek shall inherit the earth
D
Can't wear your heart on your sleeve when you've lost on your shirt
