Note: This is for the main rhythm guitar and it's mostly barre chords
(though you can play some standard versions if you want).
The song is just four chords:
A: F-shape 5th fret
D: A-shape 5th fret
B: A-shape 7th fret
Dm: Am-shape 5th fret
[Intro]
A D A D
D A
You foolish little waste of time
D A
You pucker up like lemon-lime
D A
I'm sinking into your corduroy
D A
I saw you kissing the paper boy
D A
You're smart enough to keep it light
D A
You call me up with a landmine
D A
Driving drunk with a baby in the trunk
D A
And the whole town knows you're no good,
You're no good, you're no good,
B D
Hardly ever say 'yes'
A
Oh baby try the sofa,
B D
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
A
You got a poison candy heart
(Intro riff again, second verse same as the first)
D A
You're serious, but wonderful
D A
Reckless as a chainsaw
D A
Thrilling in the bedroom
D A
And I'm average in so many ways
D A
You only want what's best for you
I do too, I do too, I do too
B D
Hardly ever say 'yes'
A
Oh baby try the sofa,
B D
Who's gonna clean this up?
A
Probably me, like I always do
Dm A
You got a poison candy heart
Dm A Dm A
You got a poison candy heart
[Whistling interlude]
A D
B D
Hardly ever say 'yes'
A
Oh baby try the sofa,
B D
Who's gonna clean this up?
Dm
Probably me, like I always do
B D
You're happiest when I'm not
I can live with that
B D
You try to kill us apart
A
You got a poison candy heart
