Verse 1:
Bb                                          Eb
Savor squares of sugar in my bedroom at one AM
Bb                                             Eb
Curled up in a crevice, in your arms, openly condemned
Bb                                              Eb
My body's bleeding and you let it, don't wanna interrupt
Bb                                                Eb
Feel me like a firework and love me till I throw it up

Chorus 1:
      Bb*                             Eb
I'm a creature of habit, caution and sin
    Bb                                          Eb
I'm breaking my bones 'cause I don't know where they've been
   Bb          F                Eb
I don't trust anyone but you're enough
     Bb
I'll be fine
Gm
I'll be fine

Verse 2:
         Bb                F
Thank my lord and sleep it off
              Eb
'Cause you're still mine
        Bb
You're betting all your billions on what will surely go away
    Eb
But if you make your demons, you know you gotta stay
    Bb
The user and abuser, you're a freak to try accuse her
      Eb
You excuse her fear and bruise her till she's quiet
            Bb
But it's alright
       F                Eb
You're handsome when we fight

Verse 3:
Bb*
Drive me to church tomorrow, it's too far to walk
Bb* Eb*
Not staying here tonight, get me home and then we'll talk
Bb                        F
Love me forever, swear on God, then on your father's grave
Eb
I know he hit you, he just wasn't that brave

Chorus 2:
  Bb
I need you like an addict needs a vice
    Eb
I'm loyal like a promise with a price
          Bb
You've got everything filed, treat me like a child
Eb
Lead me lovingly to paradise
            F
Self-sacrifice

Bridge:
    Eb            F
Ah, fever faking, heart worth breaking
Gm                  F
Words you're taking out my mouth
Eb                  F
Leave me desperate, can't accept it
Gm                     F
You're my respite when things go south

Outro:
Bb*             F*     Eb*
   I'll take it like I'm tough
Bb*       F*   Eb*
  Am I animal enough?

Bb Eb Bb*
