NOTE: Someone made a request for a chord tab of this song
      by RUSTON KELLY in standard tuning. However, I could
      not find any good videos of him doing the song as they
      were all live versions of it. I did find this version
      by JASON FRIEDMAN covering the song which was a nice
      `Clean` version of it. Please keep that in mind when
      playing and rating. I have the link to it above.

INTRO:
D     Bm    Em    A


VERSE:
D
  I hear footsteps in the Hall every night,
Bm
  I see a shadow underneath my door
          Em
There’s a hole punched threw the wall,
                  A
Are you happy now?

                      D
Your memory cuts into my days,
         Bm
And then buries all my nights away
            Em
Speaking of you is like digging my own grave
                  A
You’re my poison now


PRE-CHORUS:
                 G
Cause you still call,
          D
When you need someone to love,
          Bm
When you need a hand to touch
             A
Or throw my face down in the mud

              G
And watch me fall
           D
Till I’m crawling on knees,
         Bm
Till my fingers crack and bleed
              A                    G
Cause you’ve taken every part of me


CHORUS:
 G         D      A
You’re my poison now
G            D      A
  You’re my poison now
        G          D           A
Can I drain every drop of you out?
       G       D   A
Cause all you are now
       D  D
Is poison

        Bm    Bm
You’re poison


VERSE:
D
  It’s not because I’m left alone to wonder why
Bm
  Or what became of the heart

That will shape so much with mine
          Em
Even that now I’m a stranger in your eyes
                           A
 That’s not what tears me down

                      D
It’s how you made my worst of days

Never seem as grey
Bm
  It’s remembering the sunshine on your face
      Em
And knowing that once the sweetest taste
                A
Is only poison now


PRE-CHORUS:
                 G
Cause you still call,
          D
When you need someone to love,
          Bm
When you need a hand to touch
             A
Or throw my face down in the mud

              G
And watch me fall
           D
Till I’m crawling on knees,
         Bm
Till my fingers crack and bleed
              A                    G
Cause you’ve taken every part of me


CHORUS:
 G         D      A
You’re my poison now
G            D      A
  You’re my poison now
        G          D           A
Can I drain every drop of you out?
       G       D   A
Cause all you are now

Is poison


INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
G  D  A
G  D  A
G  D  A  A   D


VERSE:
D
I Hope there will be a time in your life
Bm
That our light comes back and it shines through your eyes
     Em
And when you can see clear enough to find
            A
I won’t be found

D
  So while you’re running through this world, so blind
Bm
  I’m gonna be running free with my arms open wide
             Em
And for the first time in such a long time
                     A
I can say I’m happy now

I’m happy now,

I’m happy now


PRE-CHORUS:
              G
So don’t you call,
     D
And tell me you’re still in love
              Bm
And that you miss me way too much
       A
Cause you don`t see how deep

             G
You made us fall
         D
From a flower into a weed
        Bm
From a lover into a thief
           A
You just stolen my life from me


CHORUS:
G           D        A
I won’t be poisoned now
 G              D        A
And I won’t be poisoned now
        G            D           A
And I drained every drop of you out
       G   D       A
Cause all you are now
           G
Is who we are
          A
Like you are to me

 G             A
All you still are
       D  D
Is poison
       Bm      Em
You`re poison
                   A
Are you happy now?
