B F#m E
Put on my best dress, I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
B F#m E
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
B F#m
Don't know your etiquette but
E
I'm strapped to my chair, and it ain't 'cos you're pretty
B F#m
You were charming, until
E
You saw your chance to kill, your chance to make history
Refrão:
C#m E B
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
E
Your blade it shines
C#m E B
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
E
Held the flame alight,
G#m
You wonder why
Caad
I'm scared of fire
C#m B E
You wonder why you make girls cry
B F#m E
My mascara a mess, harsh words for your princess
Boy, you and your promises
B F#m E
If your goal was to love, you scored an epic miss
Now you'll just have memories
Refrão:
C#m E B
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
E
Your blade it shines
C#m E B
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
E
Held the flame alight,
G#m
You wonder why
Caad
I'm scared of fire
C#m B E
You wonder why you make girls cry
C#m G#m E
Boy, you draw me back in
C#m G#m E
I'm hungry for your bad loving
C#m G#m Em
But will someone find me swinging from the rafters
C#m G#m E
From hanging on your every word
Refrão:
C#m E B
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
E
Your blade it shines
C#m E B
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
E
Held the flame alight,
G#m
You wonder why
Caad
I'm scared of fire
C#m B E
You wonder why you make girls cry
