There's only 24 [Em]hours in a [C]day,
And [Am]half as many ways for [C]you to lie to [B]me, my little love.
There's only 24 [Em]hours in a [C]day,
And [Am]half of those, you lay a[C]wake with thoughts of [B]murder and carnage.
If [Am]you lie down with dogs then you'll get [E]fleas,
Be [Am]careful of the company you [E]keep.
There's only 24 [Em]hours
And that's not e[C]nough
To lie like you [B]lie or love like you [A]love.
[Em] [C] [B] [A] [B] [Em]
There's only 24 [Em]hours in a [C]day,
And [Am]half of those you lay bet[C]ween the sheets with [B]me, my lying love.
There's only 24 [Em]hours, so you'd [C]say
For [Am]most of them you pay for [C]all the things they [B]paid you for, my love.
If [Am]you lie down with dogs, then you'll get [E]fleas
Be [Am]careful of the ones you choose to [E]leave.
There's only 24 [Em]hours
And that's not [C]enough
To lie like you [B]lie or love like you [A]love.
[Em] [C] [B] [A] [B]
Give me your [Em]heat, give me your [C]diamonds.
You hit that [B]street and my crooked [A]lust. [B]
You count to [Em]three while they're all [C]dying,
You're hard to [B]reach, you're cold to [A]touch. [B] [Em]
