The Snakes Crawl at Night Chorus: (A)The snakes crawl at night, That's what they (D)say, (A) When the sun goes (E)down, Then the snakes will (A)play, I watched that car pull into my driveway, Saw a shadow slip away from my (E)house, Then I (A)hurried straight and looked in (D)her room, And (A)found it was my (E)loving (A)spouse, Repeat Chorus So I waited in the shadows until morning, And the gun I held was trembling in my (E)hand, No, I (A)did not plan to give them any (D)warning, For the (A)devil on my (E)shoulder had (A)command, Repeat Chorus Oh, the trial in a little while, was over, And they sentenced me to die right (E)away, But (A)before I leave this courtroom please, your (D)honor, There's (A)something more that (E)I would like to (A)say, Repeat Chorus X2
