or Em Bm Am B7 B

Verse 1

Ooooh Em Bm Boy she's a viper, she's got no good news for you Am She'll try and drain you of your spirit B Bb B7 And then break your heart in two

Pre-Chorus 1

Em She'll bleed you dry and make you cry Bm She'll tell you you're not good enough Am B She'll sleep around with any guy and then tell you to toughen up C She'll turn around say it's your fault G That you're never gonna change Am B She'll say your lovers and help me, oh, you're simply too deranged C But, boy, lemme tell ya G You're so much better-er than this, but baby, Am B she'll strike you with poison from the moment you first kiss

Chorus

Em Bm Be on your guard, she's a viper, woah, it's all she's ever been Am B I'm tryin' so hard to ignore her, it's so hard to not be mean Em She'll try and charm you with her looks Bm She'll say that you're the only one Am B B7 Okay, she's got a pretty face but then her baggage weighs a ton

Pre-Chorus 2

B C She doesn't care, it's all good fun G She's never been in love before Am B7 But that doesn't mean she has the right to drag your heart across the floor C G Please don't let her, boy you're better than all this sh** you're going through Am B7 B And if you don't mind me saying so, I'm so much better for you B B7 But I.. di..gress

Chorus

Bm Em Bm Be on your guard, she's a viper, and she's coming after you Am B Em I hope to God, you can't escape her before she breaks you in two Bm Am B C Woaah ooh oh-oh oh-oh ooh oh-oh-oh oh oh oh woah G La da da-da da daa Am La da da-da da daa B B7 La da da-daah da da da-da daah

Verse 2

C G This isn't fair, what I've just said, my God, it's something I regret Am And now my chances been and gone B7 I've learned I'm easy to forget C I'm undeserving G But still preserving all this love I have for you Am Though I just sat there on my a** and hoped B B7 That one would split to two C And I'm the, biggest of b**hes G And an even worse a friend Am I know I told you I was happy B But I prayed that it would end

Outro

C And I'm sorry I'm sure she's lovely D G Yeah, I bet she's very nice Am And I've had my heart broken before so B7 B I'll try to handle twice... Em I best just leave you be She's no viper Bm Yeah, I'd better face the facts Am I just hope that I can escape you B7 B Em With my dignity still in-tact Bm Oh-oh-oh-oh Am oh-oh-oh-oh B oh oh oh ooh Em
