[Verse 1]
A [Am]box arrived this morning
Its reason [Em]was uns[Am]poken
[Em]Sign[F]ed and sent with deadly seal
[E]The box said "Do Not Open"

[Verse 2]
It [Am]stood there in the hallway
And arrested my attention
[Em]I pa[F]ced the floor and pondered why
[E]The box said "Do Not [Em]Open"

[Verse 3]
And [Am]still I [C]wondered
Will [F]temptation get the [E]best of me [Am]again?

[Verse 4]
It was [Am]just the very thing
I wasn't wishin' [Em]to be o[Am]wn in'
[Em]A pack[F]age sent to Paisley Hill
[E]The box said "Do Not [Em]Open"[E]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Seven lonely days went by
I wasn't [Em]really copin'
[F]It soon consumed my every thought
[E]The box said "Do Not Open"

[Verse 6]
And [Am]still I [C]wondered
Will [F]temptation get the [E]best of me again?

[Verse 7]
[Am]Frozen there in terror
I could hardly have been hopin'
[Em]Through an o[F]men of my
comin' doom
[E]The box said "Do Not [Em]Open"

[Verse 8]
An [Am]image of repulsion
I saw the premonition
[F]Filled my frightened mind and still
[E]The box said "Do Not [Em]Open"

[Verse 9]
But [Am]still I [C]wondered
Will [F]temptation get the [E]best
of me [Am]again?

[Verse 10]
[Am]I couldn't stand the torture
And approached [Em]the thing in ques[Am]tion
[Em]I ripp[F]ed away the seal
[E]The box, it lay there open

[Verse 11]
And [Am]there I was, a sorry man
All doubled [Em]up and chokin'
With [F]bleedin' hands and
withered nails
[E]The box, it lay there open

[Verse 12]
And it [Am]looks [C]like
[F]Temptation got the [E]best of me
again
