[VERSE]
[Gm]A home r[Gm]emo[F]ve[Gm]d, [D]a life r[Cm]esumed right here, right here.
[Gm]The Prie[F]st and t[Eb]he Rosary,
[Gm]The[F] book[Eb] and the[D] bond between he and me
[Cm]has long since broken.
[Gm]A boy wh[Cm]o's grow[Gm]n, too s[C]hort to see,
[Gm]A tale u[C]nfold, t[F#]oo tall [C]to be.
[Gm]A l[F]ife o[C]nc[Bb]e l[Gm]ive[F]d behind[C] c[Bb]losed doors,
[Gm]The[F] i[C]ro[Bb]ny of the[F#] pensive[C] whore
[CHORUS]
[Gm]Touch, t[Gm]aste,
[Gm]Feel it [Gm]ripping [C]me down.
[Gm]Reprise,[Gm] two tim[Gm]es,[Gm] the Dime.
[Gm]Burn it [C]to the g[D]round, oh on the ground.
[VERSE]
[Gm]The inquiry of Ms. Terri,
[F]The expiry of misery,
[D]The table turns, the sun along,
[Gm]The rive[F]rbed, and he's alone.
[Eb]Her object of affection,
[Cm]Conflict[D]ed by convictions of indecency, sorority,
[D]Corrupted by impropriety.
[Gm]The cavalier, she hopes of him,
[F]In dissonance with experience,
[D]The boy who grows, with knife in hand,
[Gm]To fend [F]for her, becomes a man
[Eb]While she plays fake affection,
[Cm]And carefully lacks objection,
[D]To her gentleman caller's twisted desire.
