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 
              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 


Pre-chorus:
 
 G 
Looky Black Betty, what they tying to you 
              Em7                      D 
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 


Em7 F#/D 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 F#/D 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
Outro: G Looky Black Betty, what they tying to you Em7 D 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 G Looky Black Betty, what they tying to you Em7 D 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 G I hope the money fills the holes in the place I used to stand
