Verse 1
(strum lightyly)
[Am]I'd arrest you if i had handcuffs
[Em]I'd arrest you if i had the time
[C]I'd do it to you like you [Am]do it to me
[Em]If i knew you'd get away fine
(slightly louder struming)
[Am]I'd drown all these crying babies
[Em]If i knew that their mothers wouldn't cry
[C]I'd hold them down and I'd [Am]squeeze real soft
[Em]and let a little piece of myself die
it's hard to be the beter man....
