Capo on 3rd fret
---

Verse 1 [ F Dm Am F Dm Am C ]

F       Dm       Am
love's like a needle full of methadone
F       Dm      Am      C
potent but not real left you wanting more
F          Dm
lipstick track-marks bleeding wet
   Am      C
like Montagues and Capulets
  F       Dm       Am   C
for us, child, the stars refuse to shine
    F         Dm       Am
why for us, child, do the stars refuse to shine?

Prechorus 1 [ G Am G Dm Em F ]

     G
somewhere strung out on the lam
     Am
we wound up back here again
    G
like unstable chemicals
  Dm   Em    F
combining only to explode


Chorus 1 [ Am F C G ]

Am      F        C    G
what would it take for you to notice
Am  F         C
i am heart on fire and all the
     G
world's a fuse so don't get close
Am      F
the trouble and the worth
C      G     F
am i better off on my own?


Verse 2 [ F Dm Am F Dm Am C ]

F      Dm        Am     C
contaminated quarantined then left alone
F     Dm  Am     C
shipment refused address unknown
F       Dm
damaged goods they soon forget
  Am        C
in choking dust where we got left
F       Dm       Am
for us all the stars refuse to shine


Prechorus 2 [ G Am G Dm Em F ]

G
so tap the vein and light the match
Am
we burn like stars before the crash
G
but for you there's still a chance
     Dm Em F
just let go


Chorus 2 [ Am F C G ]

Am      F        C    G
what would it take for you to notice
Am  F         C
i am heart on fire and all the
     G
world's a fuse so don't get close
Am      F
the trouble and the worth
C      G
am i better off on my own?


Post-Chorus [ F G Am F C Dm Am Em F G ]

F G Am F
C Dm Am Em F G


Bridge [ Am F C G ]

              Am F
but now there's nowhere to run
C        G     Am F
and now there's nowhere to hide
C        G     Am F
there's nothing under the sun
C     G       Am F C
we haven't already tried


Chorus 3 [ Am F C G ]

Am      F        C    G
what would it take for you to notice
Am     F
that i am a hand grenade
C      G
pin already pulled so don't let go
Am     F
as we chase the sun
C      G
my shadow slows us down
Am      F
without me along
 C    G     F
you're better off, I know
