Lyrics The Knife Game Song - The Knife Game

G C
There is an old tradition
G
A game we all can play
C
You start by getting liquored up and sharpening your blade

You take a shot of whiskey
F
You grab your knife and pray
C
And spread apart your fingers
G C
And this is what you say

G C G
Oh, I have all my fingers, the knife goes chop chop chop.
C
If I miss the spaces in between, my fingers will come off.
G
And if I hit my fingers, blood will soon come out.
C
But all the same I play this game, 'cause that's what it's all about.

C
No, you can't use a pencil
G
You can not use a pen
C
The only way is with a knife when danger is your friend

And some may call it stupid
F
Some may call it dumb
C
But all the same we play this game
G C
Because it's so damn fun

G C G
Oh, I have all my fingers, the knife goes chop chop chop.
C
If I miss the spaces in between, my fingers will come off.
G
And if I hit my fingers, the blood will soon come out.
C
But all the same I play this game, 'cause that's what it's all about.

Oh, CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP
G
I'm picking up the speed,
C
and If I hit my fingers then my hand will start to bleed.
