E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD G+G BB


Verse 1:
E minorEm            A minorAm
Twisted all my limbs for you
D MajorD            G+G        BB
Two of them in knots and two of them in loops
E minorEm             A minorAm
Ribbons tied around like a noose
D MajorD             G+G   BB
Wonder if I'll ever get it loose
E minorEm            A minorAm
I don't wanna bruise for you
D MajorD            G+G       BB
Holding back my words until my face is blue
E minorEm               A minorAm
I don't really care about your crew
          D MajorD      G+G BB
You can tell them what you want to

Pre-Chorus:
E minorEm
(Bones are crushing, palms are crushing)
    A minorAm
Pushin' me (Bodies touching, bodies touching)
    D MajorD
Lovin' me (Heart is pumping, heart is pumping)
    G+G
Pullin' me (Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing)
BB    E minorEm
Fuckin' me (Bones are crushing, palms are crushing)
     A minorAm
Crushin' me (Bodies touching, bodies touching)
     N.C.  G+G BB

Chorus:
  E minorEm    A minorAm   D MajorD
I'm done
I'm done, done doing backbends
  G+G     BB     E minorEm   A minorAm
I break and I snap
It's no fun, no fun
D MajorD          G+G       BB   E minorEm
Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
A minorAm     D MajorD      G+G   BB
 I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
E minorEm    A minorAm     D MajorD      G+G   BB
I'm done
I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Verse 2:
E minorEm            A minorAm
Twisted all my bones like screws
 D MajorD               G+G        BB
Stretching my self worth, just like you usually do
E minorEm              A minorAm   N.C.
Caught you like the cold or a flu (Ah-choo)
D MajorD                G+G  BB
Praying that I'll someday be immune
E minorEm          A minorAm
Got me like a bad tattoo (Oh-oh-oh)
D MajorD             G+G       BB
Always on your skin, even when it gets removed (Ooh)
E minorEm           A minorAm
Never got a chance to undo (Oh-oh-oh)
  D MajorD             G+G       BB
Positions that you forced my way into (Ooh)
