INTRO
F#5 to G5, B, C, D
F#5 to G5, B, C, D
I was a troubled teen
F#5 to G5, B, C, D
Who put an advert in a magazine
F#5 to G5, B, C, D
To the annoyance of my imaginary lover
F#5 to G5, B,
She doubted my integrity
C, D
And this is what she said to me
F#5 to G5, B, C, D
She said oh, you, you're green
F#5 to G5, B,
You don't know what love means
C, D
Oh let me tell you
F#5 to G5, B,
It tickles you pink, oh yeah
C, D
But it likes to hear you scream
F#5 to G5, B, C
Fire and damnation, lamentations

(Chords same as before)
I was a troubled teen
Untroubled only in my daydreams
To the annoyance of someone or others
They doubted my philosophy
And this is what they said to me
Oh, you, you'll soon be up where you belong
But it's blood from broken hearts
And write the words to every song
And there's a beautific smile
For the fawners and the servants
Oh but I, only I
I can see the serpent
Oh, you, you're green
You don't know what love means
Let me tell you
It tickles you pink, oh yeah
Everybody likes to hear you scream
Fire and damnation, lamentations
For the likes of you
When she goes, oh just let her go
If she says she's going
Just make sure she goes
Make sure she goes
