Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Difficulty: Beginner 👶
Key: AmVerse 1:
C                       G
 I am someone who until recent events
                 Am
 You shared your secrets with
            F                             C
 And your location, you forgot to turn it off
                   G                                 Am
 And so I watch as you walk into some bar called The Black Dog
                         F
 And pierce new holes in my heart
                       C
 You forgot to turn it off
        G          Am              F
 And it hits me, I just don't understand

Chorus:
               C              G
 How you don't miss me in The Black Dog
      Am                F
 When someone plays The Starting Line
          C                G
 And you jump up but she's too young
         Am                 F
 To know this song that was intertwined
        C            G      Am   F
 In the magic fabric of our dreaming
 C     G        Am    F
 Old habits die screaming


♫ Verse 2:
   C                                   G
 I move through the world with a heart broken
                    Am                     F                         C
 My longings stay unspoken and I may never open up the way I did for you
                       G                               Am
 And all of those best laid plans, you said I needed a brave man
                   F                            C
 Then proceeded to play him until I believed it too
        G           Am              F
 And it kills me, I just don't understand


♫ Chorus:
               C              G
 How you don't miss me in the shower
       Am            F                    C
 And remember how my rain soaked body was shaking
        G               Am           F
 Do you hate me? Was it hazing for a cruel fraternity?
 C              G       Am   F
 I pledged, and I still mean it
 C     G        Am    F
 Old habits die screaming


♫ Bridge:
Am                      F                           C
 Six weeks of breathing clean air, I still miss the smoke
                                              Am
 Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke
                     F                            C
 Now I wanna sell my house and set fire to all my clothes
                                           G
 And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons
               C
 Even if I die screaming
F               C
 And I hope you hear it


♫ Chorus:
                 C             G
 And I hope it's shitty in The Black Dog
      Am                F
 When someone plays the starting line
          C                G
 And you jump up but she's too young
         Am                 F
 To know this song that was intertwined
        C            G      Am   F
 In the magic fabric of our dreaming
        C                 G            Am F
 'Cause tail between your legs, you're leaving


♫ Outro:
 C       G       Am    F
 I still can't believe it
        C     G        Am    F
 'Cause old habits die screaming
