Verse 1:
A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
Just 'cause I bought a Band-Aid
G+G      B minorBm          A augmentedA
Doesn't mean I'm able to clean the scars that run
      F# minorF#m
Deeper than all my old demons that
 G+G        B minorBm
I keep under still water

A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
Just 'cause you give me flowers
G+G          B minorBm
Doesn't cover up the smell of the dead body
  A augmentedA
Or raise the dead body
   F# minorF#m        G+G       B minorBm
Of a girl who got shot down before

A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
Just 'cause you cracked the window
G+G
Doesn't mean I'm able to
B minorBm          A augmentedA
Clear the air that my heart breathes
    G+G        B minorBm
Before you came around here

A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
Just 'cause you say you love me
G+G
Doesn't mean that I'm
   B minorBm
Gonna look you in the eyes
A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
Pretend to be surprised
           G+G
And say "I love you" back
(Love you back)

Pre-Chorus:
     D MajorD
Cause I'm tripping, 'trippin on rocks
       G+G              B minorBm
Cuttin' on my ankles where I know the blood stops
D MajorD
Blue Blue Knees
        G+G      B minorBm
Fallin' for the next man who breathes

Chorus:
     D MajorD     A augmentedA
I need a band-aid recovery
G+G                 B minorBm         D MajorD
Don't get too close 'cause you're really nothing to me
       A augmentedA     G+G   B minorBm
You're just a Band-Aid on my knees
D MajorD       A augmentedA    G+G
You're just a band-aid recovery
   B minorBm         G+G
I'll rip you off when I bleed
   D MajorD         A augmentedA
I'll rip you off when I bleed

Verse 2:
A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
Just 'cause I'm coming over
G+G            B minorBm
Doesn't mean I'll be there when you wake up
    A augmentedA
'Cause coming over doesn't
F# minorF#m        G+G     B minorBm
Mean that I'm over him

A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
Just 'cause you are my band-aid
G+G             B minorBm
Doesn't mean I want you to stick around
    A augmentedA         F# minorF#m
Cause rebounds get washed away
         G+G     B minorBm
The next time it rains

Pre-Chorus:
     D MajorD
Cause I'm tripping, 'trippin on rocks
       G+G              B minorBm
Cuttin' on my ankles where I know the blood stops
D MajorD
Blue Blue Knees
        G+G      B minorBm
Fallin' for the next man who breathes

Chorus:
     D MajorD     A augmentedA
I need a band-aid recovery
G+G                 B minorBm         D MajorD
Don't get too close 'cause you're really nothing to me
       A augmentedA     G+G   B minorBm
You're just a Band-Aid on my knees
D MajorD       A augmentedA    G+G
You're just a band-aid recovery
   B minorBm         G+G
I'll rip you off when I bleed
   D MajorD         A augmentedA
I'll rip you off when I bleed
