Am               Bm                       Em                       Am
Did you really think, I’d just forgive and forget, no
Bm
After catching you with her
Em
Your blood should run cold, so cold
C            D            B7                       B7            Em
You, you two-timing, cheap lying, wannabe
C                       D                       B7           B
You’re a fool if you thought that I’d just let this go

[Chorus]

I see red, red, oh red
Em                       Bm                       Am
A gun to your head, head, to your head

Did you really just say, she didn’t mean anything, oh
Bm                                                                   Em
I’ll remember those words when I come for your soul, your soul
C                       D                    B7            B            Em
Know that you, you dug your own grave, now lie in it

You’re so cruel, but revenge is a dish best served cold

[Chorus]

I see red, red, oh red
Em                       Bm            Am                       Bm
A gun to your head, head, to your head, oh
Em                                  Bm
Executioner style, and there won’t be no trial
Am                                             Bm
Don’t you know that you better off dead
Em Bm Am Bm
All I see is red, red, oh red
Now all I see is
C B7 Em G C7 B7 A

Oh, you’re so done
A                       Am            B
Better sleep with one eye open tonight

I see red, red, oh red, oh
Em            Bm            Am            Bm
A gun to your head, head, to your head, oh
Em                                             Bm
Executioner style, and there won’t be no trial
