Am                 E     
One day as I was closing  
     Am 
my country music store,  
    Am7    Am 
In came a red haired lady,  
           Bm               A 
She was all cried out and sore.  
                            Am7 
She walked right in and grabbed me  
        Am             D 
Just right out of the blue,  
                   Am       Am7 
And said "I need someone to listen,  
Em                       Am             C 
And this someone will be you."  



     G     Am                           Eb 
She said, "I know that men are stupid,  
Am                    Bm 
I know that you are too,  
     Am               G         Am          A 
So I will try to simplify my story just for you.  
Am             E        A               D 
I am a man-eater, I own them from the start,  
Am                      E                 Am              C        A C 
But somehow this handsome fucker got his grip around my heart.  


Chorus 
A       Dm                      Am 
        Well I know I had it coming,  
    Dm 
I know I was a fool,  
  Am 
Cause he really made me trust him  
                       E7 
And he really made me drool,  
       Dm           Am 
He made me feel important,  
   Dm 
He knew just what to say,  
            Em                              A            
But you can bet your ass I really made him pay."  

Interlude: 
Am  A E Am G A 
(played while humming) 


G        Am                  Eb 
She said "My plan was to seduce him,  
Am             Bm 
But he was far ahead,  
Am                  G   
He smiled at me and suddenly  
Am                A 
I laid down in his bed.  
Am                  E           A                 D 
And so far it was perfect, but something wasn't right,  
           Am                           E               
Because I thought of him the whole next day,  
Am                     C 
And dreamt of him all night. 

  
Am                 E 
And soon I was his baby,  
Am            D 
My god I was naive,  
      Am              G    
Cause he was fine and he was mine, 
Am                A  
I simply couldn't leave.  
Am                   E               Am       C 
One day I came home early and found him in a chair,  
Am               G 
But over him sat my best friend, 
Am                     A 
And guess what she did there.  



Chorus 
A       Dm                      Am 
        Well I know I had it coming,  
    Dm 
I know I was a fool,  
  Am 
Cause he really made me trust him  
                       E7 
And he really made me drool,  
       Dm           Am 
He made me feel important,  
   Dm 
He knew just what to say,  
            Em                              A            
But you can bet your ass I really made him pay."

Well I didn't care about her,  
I let her run away,  
He said 'oh please I'm sorry'  
And I said 'but you will pay.'  
Then he tried to escape me, but I was far ahead,  
I found a knife and took his life,  
Oh god how much he bled.  



And then I cut him up in pieces,  
My handsome charming midge,  
I sorted him in big black bags,  
And put him in the fridge.  
Now I am a man-eater, in more than just one way...  
He tastes like pig, but that's okay,  
I eat him every day.  


Chorus 
Well I know I had it coming,  
I know I was a fool,  
Cause he really made me trust me  
And he really made me drool,  
He made me feel important,  
He knew just what to say,  
But you can bet your ass I really made him pay.
