Verse 1:
        F#m                                A
I don’t have the time to hear you whine about a broken heart
        E                           B
She’s a pistol packin matador and I’m the bull to taunt
     F#m                             A
I’m adoring this contortionist who warped my inner thoughts
          E                                    B
But I was easy pickin’s she would listen and boy
               F#m7
I loved to talk
A             C#m    B                F#m
Mesmerizing eyes turned me into stone
      A             B
And together I’m alone

Pre-Chorus:
                 C#m
And I don’t even want you back
                   A
Even though you’re all I have
     E
My medusa
                      B
I could use her til I crumble and I crack


Chorus:
                   C#m
And you don’t ever cross my mind
                       A
But I’ve been known to tell white lies
     E
My medusa
                      B
I could use her til I crumble and I crack
        C#m         A   E
This concrete heart
        C#m          A   E
This concrete heart


Verse 2:
      F#m7                                    A
I'm obsessed with where the edge is and how close that I can get
          E                                   B
I’ve been sitting on a nervous horse with a rope around my neck
      F#m7
I can hear those footsteps closing in
     A
This stud’s about to run
         E
And I’ve hit this line a thousand times
       B
God, I hope this is the one


Pre-Chorus:
                 C#m
And I don’t even want you back
                   A
Even though you’re all I have
     E
My medusa
                      B
I could use her til I crumble and I crack


Chorus:
                   C#m
And you don’t ever cross my mind
                       A
But I’ve been known to tell white lies
     E
My medusa
                      B
I could use her til I crumble and I crack
        C#m         A   E
This concrete heart
        C#m          A   E
This concrete heart


Bridge:
C#m
Lipstick on a glass of wine
  A
C#  cigarette that’s half of mine
  E                             B
I smoke until the ember burns my lips
    C#m
And I know I’ve been broke before
    A
But she’s a pimp who needs a whore
    E                                     B       N.E  .
And I’ve been known to sell my soul for less


Pre-Chorus:
                 C#m
And I don’t even want you back
                   A
Even though you’re all I have
     E
My medusa
                      B
I could use her til I crumble and I crack


Out-Chorus:
                   C#m
And you don’t ever cross my mind
                       A
But I’ve been known to tell white lies
     E
My medusa
                      B
I could use her til I crumble and I crack
        C#m         A   E
This concrete heart
        C#m          A   E
This concrete heart
N.E  .
This concrete heart
