Guitar chords with lyrics
- Capo on 11th
Key: Em
Chord Progression: Em-C-G-D (each repeated twice).
I added some personal differences in the second half of the song but feel
free to simply follow the pattern.
🎸 Verse 1:
Em Em C C G G D D
There’s been a stain in the carpet since the day our father took those pills
Em Em C C G G D D
And nothing’s felt real since then
Em Em C C G G D D
We haven't seen the ocean since two days after we were born
Em Em C C G G D D
And now you say you wish they’d thrown you in
🎸 Pre-Chorus 1:
Em C G D
The red and white stripes above our bed have started tearing
Em C G D
And I’m just waiting for the stars to fall through
Em C G D
They let this town fall down around us like we always thought it would
Em C G D
But we never left, even though we knew
🎸 Chorus:
Em Em C C G G D D
You and I are not in love, we are just the same
Em Em C C G G D D
Two children in a motel making love in our own grave
Em Em C C G G D D
And we are not embarrassed, but we’re filled with worms and dirt
Em Em C C G G D D
We were better off dying with her at birth
🎸 Verse 2:
Em Em C C G G D D
And I don’t care what girls you hurt as long as you come home to me
Em Em C C G G D D
’Cause I can’t be alone for long
Em Em C C G G D D
You would’ve died if I didn’t hide you when the army came to take you
Em Em C C G G D D
You can try, but you can’t tell me I’m wrong
🎸 Pre-Chorus 2:
Em D
You’re the only one I’ll let touch me
G C D
’Cause no one makes me feel safe like you do
Em C G D
All these dreams of violation starting to come true
Em C G D
Deep down
I don't wanna say no to you, no to you
🎸 Chorus:
Em Em C C G G D D
You and I are not in love, we are just the same
Em Em C C G G D D
Two children in a motel making love in our own grave
Em Em C C G G D D
And we are not embarrassed, but we’re filled with worms and dirt
Em Em C C G D
We were better off dying with her at birth Published:
