Snake Hill Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 I was boGrn on Snake Hill

 And that's whCere I'll probably die

 Because GI don't like to kill

 But I've got poiAmson in my bite

 Well, GI feel safe to say

 That IC should probably stay upon SnGake Hill

 My mGother told me, "Son, you've got strCychnine in your blood

 It coGmes from pedigree anceDstry"

 She waAmrned me not to leave

 Said my conCcience was too deep

 That when I bGite

 It would hDurt mostly Gme

 FGor many many years

 I staCyed up on that hill

 OccGasionally I'd go down to the eDdge

 To sGee what I could see

 So curiCosity got the best of Gme

 Its a bCig world and it's not fGair to me

 To have to sCtay when there's so mGuch to see

 I want to pClay with others thGat I need to mDeet

 PAmoison will be poCison until it's thrGough

Soon I hit the world

I discovered that a girl

Was what my mother tried to hide from me

She could make you feel alive

She could make you want to die

And that's exactly what she did to me

And it was only self defense

And I coiled up and I bit

I let my venom run into her veins

And I sat and watched her die

Then I realized

I was born on Snake Hill

And that's where I'll probably die

Because I don't like to kill

But I've got poison in my bite

Well, I feel safe to say

That I should probably stay upon Snake Hill

And it's a big world and it's not fair to me

To have to stay when there's so much to see

I want to play with others that I need to meet

And poison will be poison until it's through

Poison will be poison until it's through

Poison will be poison until it's through

Poison will be poison until it's through
