♫ Verse 1: A# Dm I am someone who until recent events Gm you shared your secrets with and your F location A# you forgot to turn it off A# Dm And so I watch as you walk into some Gm bar called 'The Black Dog' and pierce F new holes in my heart A# F you forgot to turn it off F D# and it hits me Gm F D# I just don't understand
♫ Chorus: A# F How you don't miss me in The Black Dog Gm D# when someone plays 'The Starting Line' A# F and you jump up but she's too young Gm to know this song D# A# that was intertwined in the magic F Dm D# fabric of our dreaming A# F Dm D# old habits die screaming ♫ Verse 2: A# I move through the world Dm with a heart broken Gm My longings stay unspoken F And I may never open up the way I A# did for you A# Dm And all of those best laid plans Gm you said I needed a brave man F then proceeded to play him A# Until I believed it too F D# and it kills me Gm F D# I just don't understand ♫ Chorus: A# How you don't miss me F in the shower Gm and remember D# A# how my rain-soaked body was shaking F do you hate me? Gm was it hazing? D# A# for a cruel fraternity I pledged F Dm D# and I still mean it A# F Dm D# Old habits die screaming ♫ Bridge: Gm D# Six weeks of breathing clean air A# I still miss the smoke A# F were you making fun of me Gm with some esoteric joke? Gm D# now I want to sell my house A# and set fire to all my clothes F and hire a priest to come and D# F exorcise my demons Gm F Dm D# A# even if I die screaming A# F Dm D# A# F D# and I hope you hear it ♫ Chorus: A# And I hope it's shitty Dm in The Black Dog Gm D# when someone plays 'The Starting Line' A# And you jump up Dm Gm but she's too young to know this song D# A# that was intertwined in the tragic Dm D# fabric of our dreaming A# F Cause tail between your legs you're D# leaving A# F Dm D# I still can't believe it A# F Dm D# cause old habits die screaming
