There's only 24 [Em] hours in a [C] day,
And [Am] half as many ways for [C] you to lie to [B] me, my little love.
There's only 24 [Em] hours in a [C] day,
And [Am] half of those, you lay a[C] wake with thoughts of [B] murder and carnage.
If [Am] you lie down with dogs then you'll get [E] fleas,
Be [Am] careful of the company you [E] keep.
There's only 24 [Em] hours

You count to [Em] three while they're all [C] dying,
You're hard to [B] reach, you're cold to [A] touch. [B] [Em]
