E minorEm                 G minorGm
If the Devil had seen your dress
E minorEm               G minorGm
He would've changed his name
E minorEm                   G minorGm

Why burn in hell when you burn for love?

E minorEm                  G minorGm
There are two kinds of lovers in this world
E minorEm                     G minorGm
Those who like diamonds and those who like dirt

Here I stand, my face is a mask
E minorEm              G minorGm
I'll take it off because you asked

G+G          C majorC
So hold me up on my word
G+G            B minorBm
And keep me down in the bed
C majorC                D MajorD
There's one thing I should have said
G+G               C majorC
Will you keep me safe from the world
G+G            B minorBm
And hold me just like a pearl?
C majorC              D MajorD
The light always shines the brightest
    E minorEm
In the core of a flame
