This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Lyrics

1.

When the first car hit the wall

Was the gulit still in or head?

In your magic crystal ball

Is the poweer that made you mad

You can't save yourself, it's a pleasure cruise

You're damned for a million years

2.

There's a viper in your bedroom

Under the sheets is tarantula fuzz

When she bites, she bites for murder

I bleed the Addams Family blood

There's a spell on me that I can't reverse

It's a sympathy cross you burn

Chorus

Cure me.. Or Kill me..

But don't leave me here for dead

Again

Cure me.. Or Kill me..

But don't leave me here for dead

Again

3.

This is your last happy Christmas

Your worst Birthday party

The cyanide in your poison ring

Wouldn't cure my misery

Don't bury me when I'm history

I think you'll find an easy way out
