Standard (EADGBE)

She whispers oh such pretty lies, don't believe her

For when she looks into her eyes love just isn't there

 Brother, beware, take care, my brother, take care

 For the female of the species is deadlier than the male

The smile that made a dream begin clouds your vision

It's just the shadow of a dream that you're living in

She never cared, beware, my brother, beware

For the female of the species is deadlier than the male

Memories of kisses on a summer's day

That's all she left you when she went away, now, you pay!

By walking streets, you'll never know when the night comes

Sitting at places that you go hoping she'll be there

Brother, beware, take care, my brother, take care

For the female of the species is deadlier than the male
