Arranged by Jack Cookson (Torn Asunder)

Brilliant tune from a brilliant long awaited new album - there's a tricky
strumming pattern to this tune but you should get it with practice.
Sorry about the tab title - I got it wrong and now UG won't let me change it.

Verse 1:
Em7 Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9
My love, my love, you're the sting of the scorpion
Em7 Cadd9 G F#/D
Consider, now, the angels, a little lower than you
Em7 Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9
And they twist and they turn, and they hold their breath 'til it's blue
Em7 Cadd9 G F#/D
And they can't turn away like I can't, when you're lookin' like you do
Pre-chorus:
G
Well looky Black Betty, what they tying to you

[Refrão]
Em7
You did the very thing, baby, that I asked you not to do
G
And now you got yourself caught in the silk spider web
Em7 F#/D
I hope the money fills the holes cause see the roof is caving in

Verse 2:
Em7 Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9
My heart, my heart, you're the moon and her shining light
Em7 Cadd9 G F#/D
Darkness in void of form, like you were keeping me alive
Em7 Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9
And I've been dreaming of poisonings from the venom of my enemies
Em7 Cadd9 G F#/D G
Clever as the viper dear, but gentle as a stampede of stones

Looky Black Betty, what they tying to you

Chorus:
Em7 G Bm
And they want you to doubt every trust that you've known
Cadd9 Em7
And they wanna find the holes in the armor exposed
G
And they come on whispering,
Bm
If you just do this for me...
Cadd9 D
And turn and show their teeth just before they're sinking in
Em7 D Cadd9
And better than described and deeper the descent
G F#/D
I never thought we'd have to learn to doubt our friends
Em7 D Cadd9
And better than described, so much deeper the descent
G F#/D
I never thought we'd have to learn to doubt our friends

I hope the money fills the holes in the place I used to stand
