      C minorCm
Why did you call it what you called it?
       AbAb
You could've called it off
     C minorCm             AbAb
Did you ever feel the way I did at all?

Probably gets you off
 Bb majorBb
Thinking I'm broken
     C minorCm
Shadows holding me with my fingers crossed
     Bb majorBb                  AbAb
Like I'm in a corner, back against the wall

But I promise I'm not

Pre-Chorus:

Up, up in the madness
     Bb majorBb
You turned a lover to a savage
       AbAb
Think you're addicted to my sadness
Bb majorBb
No more

You don't get in my brain

I don't whisper your name
     AbAb

C minorCm
Thought that you meant it
        AbAb
When you spent all those quiet nights on me
     C minorCm                 AbAb
Told me all about the secrets that you keep

I thought you were so deep
Bb majorBb     C minorCm
So badly wanted something
              AbAb           Bb majorBb
So I let you keep taking me up, up in the madness, madness

You, all the words that you don't say speak the loudest
AbAb      Bb majorBb                    AbAb
You said you did, but you don't give a fuck about us
     Bb majorBb
'Bout us

Don't say it, don't say it
