She Twists The Knife Again

Em
I keep my nose clean, I keep my speech plain
G                   Am             Bm
I keep my promises, she twists the knife again
Em
I shut my memory, I close my eyes and then
G                       Am             Bm
She takes another bite, she twists the knife again

C         D        C   D
She never leaves me my dignity
C       D          G         A
Makes a dunce of me in mixed company
C       D       C       D
No bygone can be a bygone
C       D               G               A
She throws the spanner in, she puts the screws on

Am     Dm          G                    A
In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again
       Dm            G                     A
When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again
       Dm                G
When I think I'm off the hook she gets me
Am                          Am
She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again

Em
I make my moves well, I let her tell me when
G                       Am              Bm
I walk a fine line, she twists the knife again
Em
Just when the scar heals, just when the grip unbends
G                               Am              Bm
Just when her mind reels, she twists the knife again

C       D               C       D
She can give it out, she can't take it
C       D               G               A
She smells something bad, she has to rake it
C       D               C       D
I bring home my packet, my white-collar money
C       D               G               A
I'm in a fist fight, she thinks she's Gene Tunney

Am      Dm      G                       A
In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again
        Dm              G               A
When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again
        Dm              G
When I think I'm off the hook she gets me
Am                              Am
She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again
