Verse:
G D Am C
Darlin' there's a river near the house where I grew up
G D C
And I think it might be moving fast enough
G D Am C
And there's a silence there so thick that you could stick a knife in it
G D C G
Or anything that you've been dreaming of
Pre-Chorus:
Em D G
And you should know that my affections are always true
Em C D
And my heart's got a tricky valve that beats for nobody but you
Chorus:
C G
And when I decide to kill you
C D
I'll do it with my hands
C Em D
And fine gloves worth the death of a gentleman
C G
My words may seem mighty hollow
C D
But don't doubt that I can
C
'Cos I've got long fingers for a woman

Last night I found a note you wrote and left inside my room

This love is bound with heart and guts and glue

May I say that my intentions are through and through

And there's a twitch in my left eyebrow that tics for nobody but you

I'll do it with my hands
