Chorus: C Take it back, take it back G oh no you can't say that D all of my friends are not dead or in jail G through rock and through stone C G the black wind still moans D C G sweet revenge sweet revenge without fail. G I caught an aisle seat on a plane C G and drove an English teacher half insane D making up jokes about bicycle spokes and red balloons G so I called up my local deejay C G and he didn't have a lot to say D C G but the radio has learned all of my favorite tunes. (Repeat Chorus) G The white meat is on the run C G and the dark meat is far too done D and the milkman left me a note yesterday G get out of this town by noon C G you're coming on way too soon D C G and besides that we never liked you any way. (Repeat Chorus) G D C G Sweet revenge sweet revenge will prevail.
