              A#m            G# F#
You're like a rock to a stone,
                               A#m        G# F#
So tell me how can you break a broken soul.
              A#m         G# F#
I don't wanna feel no more,
                         A#m      G# F#
Baby, baby, I just wanna be adored.

A#m              G#              F#
And something's telling me that you're no rose,
A#m                G#       F#
Come along little sister, ghost to ghost.

Chorus:
         C#            G#    D#
You're a backstabber, gold chaser.
C#       G#              D#
You got demons in your dream catcher.
C#        G#                  D#
Wave the flag, don't burn me down,
don't burn me down.
        C#           G#             D#
You're a solid gold digger at your height,
you been a backstabber all your life.

Yeah, you can't help yourself
You love the thrill of something that's not yours
That's why you're back knocking at my door
Oh, baby, baby, you just love to be adored
And something's telling me that you're no rose
Come along, little sister, ghost to ghost

Chorus:
You're a backstabber, gold chaser
You got demons in your dream catcher
Wave the flag, don't turn me down
Don't burn me down
You're a solid gold digger at your height
You been a backstabber all your life
You been a backstabber all your life
Wave the flag, don't burn me down
Don't burn me down
You're a solid gold digger at your height
You been a backstabber all your life
