Ex Lover's Lover
Voltaire
Tabbed by 5ason
This song is extremely easy, though it is still Great and a fun thing to sit around and
play mindlessly.
Fist, tune your guitar a full step down (D G C F A d). This is the case with most
Voltaire songs, though!
The only chords you need to know are Em and Am, there is an optional A7 in there, though
it still sounds great without it.
If on occasion you want to add a bit of flavor, plucking each of the three bottom
strings from the bottom up gives a nice touch.
Em Am
Three heavy stones will keep it from floating,
Em Am
weigh it down to the bottom, food for the fishes.
Em Am Em
And I know that it won't be discovered
Am
'cause I will be careful, so very careful.
START HAMMERING THE CHORDS ON HERE, BUT KEEP STRUMMING
Em Am Em
What if it doesn't rain for days and the river is
STOP HAMMERING
Am
reduced to its muddy bed?
Em Am
With a corpse exposed I would work in haste
Em Am
and... I might bury the bones in a shallow grave.
A7 or Am
And the rain comes and moves rocks and the stones
A7 or Am
washes away all the dirt and the mudflows
A7 or Am
Bones are exposed and well.
A7 or Am
you know how that goes!
Em
I wait for the day when I'll finally defile
Am
the bodies of my ex lover's lovers.
Em
I'll pile high to the sky
Am
the bodies of my ex lover's lovers
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em
watch them die.
Am Em
watch them die.
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em
watch them die.
Am Em
watch them die.
(play Em to Am twice)

Em Am
I saw you with him, You looked so happy..
Em Am
All of that can change! 'cause, I am so lonely,
Em
and I have lots of time, to, send you straight
Am Em
to the Devil, I'm taking my time
Am
to, plan your demise.
Em Am Em
What if I were to cut you up and mail each part
Am Em
to a different town? It would take the most
Am Am or A7
brilliant private eye the rest of his life
Am or A7
just to put you together.
Am or A7
a piece in each mailbox all over the planet
Am or A7
from Moscow to Tokyo to Guadalajara.
Em
I wait for the day when I'll finally defile
Am
the bodies of my ex lover's lovers.
Em
I'll pile high to the sky
Am
the bodies of my ex lover's lovers
Em
I wait for the day when I'll finally destroy
Am
the bodies of my ex lover's lovers.
Em
I'll pile high to the sky
Am
the bodies of my ex lover's lovers
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em
watch them die.
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em
watch them die.
Em Am
I saw you with him, you looked so happy.
Em Am
That will never change, because I know myself
Em
too well. I don't have the courage
Em
to carry out my dreams
Am
And only there will I see them
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em
watch them die.
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em
watch them die.
Em
Die, die, die diddle die,
Am
die diddle die, diddle die,
Em

Em

killing your Ex, however unfortunate!
