 x2: C, Cadd9, G+G

Verse 1
C majorC           Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
 Just when I had everything figured out

C majorC        Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 I let too many words open my small mouth

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 He held me once in a room

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 It was unattended, and it tasted

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Of an artist's perfume (Oooh, oooh)

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Of an artist's perfume

C majorC  Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 He graced my naked back

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 My only sheet was a black dress

C majorC       Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
 Woke up to a cold, windy city

C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
 Woke up trying to keep the memory

C majorC          Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 I was poisoned into lying through my teeth

C majorC     Cadd9Cadd9        G+G
 While his words were spoken only truthfully

C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
 Lost my shoes in the mud,

C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
 Walked away clean
       C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Trying to be tough (Oooh, oooh)

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 I was trying to be tough

Chorus 1
E minorEm         G+G        C majorC
 There's nothing in between love and hate

Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
 When it comes down to it

E minorEm           G+G             C majorC
 So you can walk clean away or you can act in the play

Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 That we so easily put on for them


Verse 2
 x2: C, Cadd9, G+G

C majorC            Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 There was residence of hope in my heart

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
 Til' I got dealt the unlucky card

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
 Though the buildup was fun

C majorC  Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 The letdown wasn't worth it all

C majorC       Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
 So I stole us our midnight drinks

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
 And he got dealt our morning fix

C majorC        Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
 Then we let the honesty pour

C majorC          Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Until it knocked us out into a deep sleep

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Into a bad dream (Oooh, oooh)

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Is this a bad dream?

C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9      G+G
 He said he used to be like me

C majorC     Cadd9Cadd9        G+G
 A augmentedA musical mess, depressed with anxiety

C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9         G+G
 My ears only took half of his advice

C majorC     Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
 Happiness comes so easily to him (Oooh, Oooh)

C majorC  Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 For me it's a fight (Oooh, oooh)

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 It's always been a fight


Chorus 2
E minorEm           G+G        C majorC
 There's nothing in between lovers and friends

Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
 When it comes down to it

E minorEm           G+G              C majorC
 So you've made up your mind, and I'm not worth your time

Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
 But I can be useful in your life

E minorEm           G+G               C majorC
 I'll push the pedal in deep, you're in the passenger seat

Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
 I'll get us there as fast as I can

E minorEm             G+G              C majorC
 So we can go our separate ways, I mean this was just a stage

Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
 Of the rest of our lives

E minorEm            G+G              C majorC
 I'm growing too weak to fight, at least I gave you a try...


Outro

C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9   G+G
 Did I speak too soon?
