Skin And Script chords by Ira Wolf

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

  C minorCm       Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb
  All you are is black ink on blue lines

FF C minorCm        Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb
  But all I am is one notch in a bedpost

    FF      C minorCm  Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb
  Or at most the ghost that keeps you warm

       C minorCm   Eb MajorEb  Bb majorBb
  Just the ghost


Verse 2:

      C minorCm              Eb MajorEb
  We went searching for some comfort by using one another

 Bb majorBb             G minorGm         Eb MajorEb
  Both needing lovers of some sort, but it was vile and it was cheap

      FF              G minorGm      FF     Eb MajorEb
  And we trade for what we need with words and curves behind closed doors

Chorus:

   G minorGm         Eb MajorEb
  I bought the lines I needed from you

       Bb majorBb            FF
  Slippin' out of that dress and my high heel shoes

 G minorGm      Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb
  I guess I needed my fix too

   G minorGm            Eb MajorEb
  I spent the nights, oh, you spent your words

      Bb majorBb         FF
  And we both got hooked, we both got burned

 G minorGm
  'Cause I move the way that you like

 Eb MajorEb
  And you fed me your best lines

 C minorCm           Eb MajorEb   FF   C minorCm    Eb MajorEb  Bb majorBb
  And we took one more hit of skin and script

C minorCm Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb

Verse 3:

 C minorCm        Eb MajorEb        Bb majorBb              C minorCm   Eb MajorEb   Bb majorBb
  You lose me in your sleep tucked beneath the same sheets that shelter my bare skin

FF C minorCm      Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb         Eb MajorEb              FF
  And I lose my mind when I rewind every time I tasted your sweat I breathed your heat in

 Eb MajorEb                     FF              G minorGm Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
  'Cause the only way you keep me warm now is burning lyrics I wrote down

 G minorGm FF


Chorus:

     G minorGm         Eb MajorEb
  And I bought the lines I needed from you

       Bb majorBb            FF
  Slippin' out of that dress and my high heel shoes

 G minorGm     Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb
  I guess I needed my fix too

   G minorGm         Eb MajorEb
  I spent the night and smoked your words

      Bb majorBb        FF
  'Til we both got high, we all got worse

 G minorGm
  'Cause I love you like you needed

 Eb MajorEb
  And you became my addiction

     C minorCm
  Sweet and sick

         Eb MajorEb   FF   C minorCm   Eb MajorEb
  With one more hit of skin and script

 Bb majorBb FF C majorC Eb MajorEb G minorGm G+G
