Chords with lyrics

This is Alkaline Trio's "Eating Me Alive", track 8 from their record 'This
Addiction'. Half-Step Tuning.

Intro: C, G, A5, C, G, A5, F, G+G

Verse 1:
C majorC
Well I found you outside like a sunrise,
    G+G
That melted my eyes from my skull.
         E5E5
As I turned into ash before for my sweet demise,
   FF        G+G
The end of me was so beautiful.
          C majorC           G+G
Well now you're stuck in my head like a love song,

That climbed to the top of the charts.
     E5E5
How the fuck can something be so right and so wrong?
     FF               G+G
All the wrong words but all the right parts.

Chorus: (Staccato)
      A5A5       F5F5      C5C5   G5G5
And you can sit there and tell me that I didn't try,
      A5A5    F5F5      C5C5   G5G5
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
    A5A5       F5F5      C5C5       G5G5  FF
I can't stand this dark feeling, the shark eating me up inside.

Eating me alive
FF      G+G   FF
Eating me alive


Verse 2:
C majorC
Well I found you out there in the moonlight,
      G+G
In your eyes there were diamonds like stars.
     E5E5
I was bound by your father, the jewel thief,
          FF             G+G
That night as you said he was still behind bars.
C majorC
Now you're stuck in my head like a love song,
    G+G
The words I can never forget.
   E5E5
As I sucked on your neck for way too long,
                FF      G+G
And drained you of every last drop you had left.

Chorus: (Staccato)
      A5A5       F5F5      C5C5   G5G5
And you can sit there and tell me that I didn't try,

And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
    A5A5       F5F5      C5C5       G5G5  FF
I can't stand this dark feeling, the shark eating me up inside.

FF        G+G   C majorC   G+G
Here lies a homicidal story, sad but true.

The time has come and gone but I'd do anything for you.


Chorus: (Faster, Smoother Rhythm)
