The Suffering Lyrics & Tabs by Fishbone
The Suffering
guitar chords lyrics
I saw the stars in your eyes
And I knew it was puppy school love
(...)
You saw the twinkle in mine
Then we both knew it was time to hold our breath
(And run and get committed)
We got lost in a sea of love and lust
With a galaxy of trust
(We were soon committed)
To each other like a mussel in a clam
To the movies to the mall glued together hand in hand
And we walked and ran through loveland
Everything was fine
Until my baby took me for my very last dime
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Everything was fine
Until my baby took me for my very last dime
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I'd been mislead
My, my she sucked me dry
Now the little missus wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring, the wedding ring
The church bells ring
And the suffering
Understand I'm a man
Who believes in the glory of love
(You're a fool and a sucka)
True love is the light shining bright
From the Heavens, the Heavens above
(You cold motherfucker)
I believe, I believe it is better to trust
Even when I'm wrong
(Be careful you're my brother)
Than to let my fear drive me
From the home where I have belonged
(... your mother)
She was my queen to protect and serve
Then she threw me a curve
Skam skimmin' gold diggin'
Kick me to the curb
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I'd been mislead
My, my she sucked me dry
Now the little missus wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring, the wedding ring
The church bells ring
And the suffering
The engagement ring
The wedding ring
The church bells ring
And the suffering
I know what they say on the street
She's a cheat and a thief and a liar
(And everybody knows it)
But she's my light and my love and my hope
And my only desire
(You're anger can't control it)
She broke the bank then she took my car
That chick stole my heart
Till death do you part
Should have known from the start
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I'd been mislead
My, my she sucked me dry
Now the hoochie mama wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring, the wedding ring
The church bells ring
And the suffering
