Verse 1:

 D
You said you needed water
 D
So I built the house on sand
 Em
But when it sank into the ocean
 Em
The blood was on my hands
D
You left me in a limbo
D
A catch 22
Em
Saving my own life
 Em
Made me the murderer of you

Pre-Chorus:
 A
But I know
 A
I can't claim it as just self-defense
G 
Protecting the illusion of my permanent innocence
A
 
A
Because who's guilty is besides the point
 G
It has to be me
 G
I have to be

Chorus:
D
Your destroyer
G                                       D
I don't wanna, but I have to be
D                  G
Your destroyer
G                                       D
I don't wanna, but I have to be
D                G
Your destroyer
G                    D
Oh, I have to be
D
Your destroyer

Verse 2:
D
The villain of the movie
D
Just a victim of the times
Em
You dress me up and use me
Em
To fit the story you designed
D
Oh, I yearned for your approval
D
'Til I didn't recognize me either
Em
Two tickets for a funeral when you
Em
Blow up the hand that feeds ya

Pre-Chorus:

A
Oh, I can't claim it as just self-defense
G                                                                  A
Protecting the illusion of my permanent innocence
A
Because who's guilty is besides the point
G
It has to be me
G
I have to be

Chorus:
D
Your destroyer
G
I don't wanna, but I have to be
D                  G
Your destroyer
G                                       D
I don't wanna, but I have to be
D                G
Your destroyer
G                    D
Oh, I have to be
D
Your destroyer
