[If you know this bar chord, you can use it here to perfection.
i don't think mason does it this simply, but it'll get you there in a pinch]
B E G#m A B E
12/8 time seemed to her to be some sort of life of crime
G#m A B E
With the handcuffs and the billy clubs coming down on me
She said rock 'n roll don't give her nothing but bad dreams
G#m A
So she planned my funeral and left me for dead
G#m A
A single corpse in a double bed
G#m A
But now she's standing on my front porch
B
She goes knock knock knock knock
Knock knock knock knock
E B E
She come a-knockin at my door
E B E
Now she come a-knockin at my door
E B E
Now her key it don't fit
E B E
I'm not gonna let her in
Now she come a-knockin at my door
Now she come a-knockin at my door
Now her key it don't fit
I'm not gonna let her in
Now wouldn't you lookie here
She's got a perfume bottle and a fancy clothes
And a ribbon in her hair
Well she ain't bad-lookin', and I'll give her that
But she ain't all there
And her body ain't as sexy as her underwear
Her stomach ain't big enough I suppose
To eat up all the mean words that she spoke
She gonna try and ring quiet but the doorbell's broke
She gonna hafta knock knock knock, I said
You're gonna knock knock knock, yeah
She come a-knockin at my door
Now she come a-knockin at my door
Now her key it don't fit
I'm not gonna let her in
Now she come a-knockin at my door
Now she come a-knockin at my door
Now her key it don't fit
I'm not gonna let her in
She come a knock-knock, let me in
She come a knock-knock, let me in
She come a knock-knock, let me in
I said no-o-o,
She come a knock-knock, let me in
She come a knock-knock, let me in
She come a knock-knock, please
Oh good God please let me in
No no no no no...
Not by the hair of my chinny-chin-chin
Would I ever consider to begin to let you in
