Chords with lyrics

Intro:
Am*


Verse 1:
Chord diagramA minorAm                                        Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
Naked and retched and retching on a hotel bathroom floor
Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2
Somewhere in the city
Chord diagramA minorAm                                               Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
Three days not sleeping, not eating, not feeling good anymore
            Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2               Chord diagramDmDm
Drenched in sweat and self-pity now
Chord diagramDmDm                       Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
It's not a pretty sight
Chorus:
        Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2        Am*      Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
What to say in my defense?
  Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2          Am*
I was imperfect, tense
Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2             Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2          Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramC/BC/B      Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2  Chord diagramFF
Used to have such balance, but I don't know where it went
             Chord diagramG+G                    Am*
So won't you be my present sense?


Verse 2:
Chord diagramA minorAm                                             Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
Breaking, I'm shaking, it's taking a long long time
                      Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2
To come down off this murderous medication
Chord diagramA minorAm                                        Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2           Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2                Chord diagramDmDm
Trying to remember my reasons for running myself into the ground with such dedication


Chorus:
Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2   Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2       Am*       Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
What to say in my defense?
  Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2          Am*
I was imperfect, tense
Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2             Chord diagramGsus2Gsus2          Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramC/BC/B      Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2  Chord diagramFF
Used to have such balance, but I don't know where it went
             Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramBb majorBb    Chord diagramA minorAm   Chord diagramG#G#   Chord diagramG7G7
So won't you be my present sense?


Bridge:
Chord diagramDmDm   Chord diagramC majorC   Chord diagramG/BG/B   Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramG+G
It's not meant to be
Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG/BG/B Chord diagramA minorAm   Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramFF
I am  lost at sea
   Chord diagramDmDm Chord diagramC majorC     Chord diagramG/BG/B  Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramG+G
So mermaids sing to me

       Chord diagramC majorC
Of the better times and the things that can be
       Chord diagramFF
And of islands in the Mediterranean sea
       Chord diagramC majorC
And of eating and sleeping and times when I should
       Chord diagramFF
And of washing the drink and the drugs from my blood
         Chord diagramDmDm                Chord diagramG+G
And I've nothing to say in my defense
    Chord diagramDmDm                   Chord diagramG+G
I'm far from perfect and I'm still tense
     Chord diagramDmDm                Chord diagramG+G
They say that love can change you once
        Chord diagramDmDm                 Chord diagramG+G
Please, say that love can change me once
        Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
Come on change me
