I saw the premonition

I couldn't (A minor) stand the torture
And approached the thing (E minor) in ques (A minor) tion
(E minor) I (F major) ripped away the seal
The box, (E major) it lay there open

And (A minor) there I was, a sorry man
All doubled up (E minor) and chokin'
With (F major) bleedin' hands and
withered nails
The box, (E major) it lay there open
Verse 12
And it (A minor) looks like (C major)
Tempta (F major) tion got the (E major) best of me
again
(A minor) (F major) (A minor) (F sharpdim) (F major) (E major)
